Are Dark Spots On Cauliflower Safe To Eat?
HuffPost
Is it mold? Or worse? Experts share everything you need to know.
As a semi-regular consumer of cauliflower, I’ve always been a little puzzled when I open the fridge, take out a head of cauliflower I bought a few days ago, and find little dark spots all over it. These dark spots range from yellowish to brown and black, and, to be honest, I always thought those spots were mold.
Embarrassingly, I didn’t actually get rid of my cauliflower when I saw those spots pop up. Instead, I cut them off and cooked the cauliflower anyway — I had just bought it, and this always seemed to happen, so I tried to ignore it. A little mold wouldn’t kill me, right? But recently, I found out those spots aren’t mold at all. They’re the result of oxidation.
