Moldy strawberry question

busterbeagle

I might be overreacting but I thought I ask just to be safe: 

I bought strawberries at the grocery store on Friday and yesterday noticed that one of them had a lot of white mold on it.  I threw it away but just put the rest back in the fridge because I wasn't sure what to do--they are all mold-free but the moldy one touched them so I'm kind of freaked out.  Do you think it is safe to eat them or not worth taking the chance?  Thanks for any opinions!

Regardless of pregnancy, I wouldn't eat them.  Mold starts out microscopic...it could be on the other berries but you can't see it just yet.

I'd take them back to the grocery store though...they should not go moldy in three days.

I wouldn't eat them while pregnant, especially if the remaining ones are at all soft or discolored.  Food poisoning isn't pleasant, and I'd imagine it would be much less so while pregnant.

This happened to me yesterday. DH bought a box of them but they looked suspect to him. I ended up having 6 strawberries because he didn't think it was safe for LO.

Personally I would just wash em with warm water and eat them. But going bad in 3 days isnt normal for berries
