Learn all about the way bread mold grows and how it ruins your families lunch.

A bread box designed to prevent mold from growing on your run of the mill unmodified loaf of carbs.

This breadbox uses UV lights in the same way medical sanitizers do to keep bread mold free. Although it can't prevent mold from growing on the inside, it can keep bread fresh up to 50% longer.

Molds (or moulds, see spelling differences) include all species of microscopic fungi that grow in the form of multicellular filaments, called hyphae. In contrast, microscopic fungi that grow as single cells are called yeasts. A connected network of these tubular branching hyphae has multiple, genetically identical nuclei and is considered a single organism, referred to as a colony or in more technical terms a mycelium.Molds do not form a specific taxonomic or phylogenetic grouping, but can be found in the divisions Zygomycota, Deuteromycota and Ascomycota. Although some molds cause disease or food spoilage, others are useful for their role in biodegradation or in the production of various foods, beverages, antibiotics and enzymes.
