      No at all mold can be a very good thing and blue cheese is totally safe! Blue cheese mold is from the family of penicillium mold, and one form of this mold is penicillin an antibiotics! However some mold can be bad for you so if something get moldy in your fridge don’t eat it, in the case of cheese take the moldy piece off and you can eat the rest!
