New mouldy stuff – Piccalilli?

Bizzywig off of Bizzywig’s Blog suggested that I might want to look at creating some new mouldy stuff, using Piccalilli. 

Now, I’ve not done any mould experiments for a while now. I’m not completely adverse to creating a new one – though my wife is not as taken by the idea as I am – but I would need to be sure that it’s the right one. 

Of course, Piccalilli has the advantage that the mould is automatically contained within the very jar that the foodstuff arrives in.  The downside to this, I think, compared to my previous exploits, would be that the jar would offer a relatively small surface area from which to observe the mould growth.  This does concern me a little. 

I think at this point though that I would not be happy with the mould-inna-icecream-tub approach that I’ve used before, because it would be all too prone to damage from cat interest.

So I guess it is open to you, the readers.  If you want to see any particular mouldy stuff experiment next, please comment and let me know.   (I should say that I won’t be doing any mouldy meat experiments.  Mouldy meat is just too much, and I’m not quite that bonkers. )

    Hmm… Perhaps piccalilli was a difficult suggestion.

    Given my current preoccupation with oranges, may I suggest investigating the relative fungus factor of fruit? They can easily be stored in Ice-cream tubs and cats are particularly adverse to oranges (well some are – Jerry, my confused cat, steals them whenever he gets the chance).

    They are mostly colourful and photogenic too!

    I’ve personally seen some very grey and hairy strawberries. They were not appetising – though unfortunately I’d eaten one before I realised this :(

    Kindest Regards,
