@ElPsyKongroo mold doesn't "go" over 500f though now, does it.

It is almost certainly not possible for mold to "digest" teflon, though it CAN use it as a surface to grow on (just like any other surface). Most likely it is digesting minute particles of food on the teflon, absorbing water from the air (or the bread sitting on the teflon). It is NOT using the teflon as a food source. The discoloration afterwards is more likely due to using a scrubbing agent to remove the mold from the teflon, and causing small scratches in doing so. It may be possible for mold to affect the metal underneath the teflon coating, if the coating is already fairly damaged and/or degraded. but it cannot digest the coating itself.

"Fungi don't move around" Well, some have mobile stages in their development, and immobility is not actually a defining characteristic, but good enough for government work I suppose. We typically reclassify things we thought were fungi into protists if they start moving around too much. LOOKING AT YOU, slime molds!

yeah, it's the size issue really. when you are eating an insect, you are usually eating the thing whole. that means all the guts and carapace and everything. when you are eating an ocean crustacean, you typically are REMOVING the tasty flesh from the rest of it. BIG difference. literally.
