Mouldy food...

Palytoxin

Right, so the problem is I had some tuna and sweetcorn in a bowl, left it in my room, put the bowl inside a glass pyrex dish with a lid to stop the smell of the tuna getting out;), left it a while, and now it is nearly full of mould. :mad:What would be the best plan of action, apart from this- http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs34/f/2008/291/4/2/Gas_mask_by_steamw.jpg
for getting rid of it?

Eat it you coward.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here, but hear me out.

How about throwing it in the bin and washing the glass dish?

Might just be crazy enough to work, no?

phasers

Put it in a bin bag and fling it into the neighbours garden

Guill

Kill it with fire.....

Lady Chuckles

Just throw it away, silly :rolleyes:

Kevin Duffy

Get off-planet and nuke it from orbit Ripley.

Ad a fly or something to the mix and put it away for another few weeks. Then, unleash the supermutant.

I think you should move back home - you clearly can't be left alone!

See the problem is I want to keep the dish, but don't want the smell to go everywhere (I have roommates and morals!), just give me a minute and I'll try something- I'll keep ye updated:)

Why the hey do you want to keep it?

Donal Og O Baelach

Just wait. Get a large duvet and curl up outside the fridge for a few months. It should be gone in a year.

Palytoxin

Right, stage one- complete.
Bulk of aforementioned tuna and sweetcorn transfer to bag and sealed in a second bag. As we speak, the dish is on the windowsill, full of deodorant between the glass and the blind so the smell can escape outside, there are dead birds everywhere outside and the trees all look like thishttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8d/Rhynchophorus_ferrugineus_larva.JPG
Stage 2 can now begin...

Why did you leave a bowl of tuna in your room in the first place?

I ate mouldy jam twice this week. I picked out the mould obviously. :-/

FatherLen

tuna on its own smells bad enough, i would say it smells fairly bad now!

Who knows, but you'll be glad to hear stage 2 is now complete!- Most of mould, green and white, along with the mould juices( Aaargh:eek:), have now been removed, onto stage 3, the washing...

You can only imagine, I dare not bring it into the communal areas of the flat for fear of my life and the lives of others:D

FatherLen

throw it out the window and make it natures problem

Palytoxin

It's all over, the beast is dead, and I would just like to say a few thank yous, firstly to tesco for their plastic bags, the finest in all the land, secondly lynx, whose deodorant may have saved my life, fairy washing up liquid, you have been there from the start and will be there to the end, you are so long lasting, and finally the big one, myself, whose laziness, stupidity and procrastination made this entirely possible:)
Mods you can close her up, this thread has served its purpose.
I bid you fairwell, may you succeed in all future battles against moulds and their allies, good luck, you will need it...:pac:
