According to the scientists engaged by Friends of Habanos, that stuff was actually penicillin bacteria.

penicillum fungi are of many species and grow on many things (like bread). They are extremely common even in dry places.

you could have bloom and mold coexisting simultaneously and at the same time even.

like I said, I ain't very smart, and I am against autoknotting of knickers. Feel free to play through.

I wasn’t trying to start an argument, and I am no scientist. I meant it as a joke. Please don’t take any offense.

Whatever it could be, if it wipes off easily, I'll smoke it!
