I'm not sure but I think we are the only ape that doesn't eat mould or mouldy food . It's why we don't have a blue food group. The only reason is that we are so good at finding food we don't need to eat mouldy stuff. We can digest it, we just don't have any appetite for it.
Off foods, such as dairy or meats are different and you shouldn't eat those.
Does cheese count as mouldy food?
@Thornburywitch @Seagoon_ Some of the most delicious foods are basically mouldy (or at least use yeast or a culture of some kind).
Cheese, wine, bread, cake, yoghurt, kimchi...
And you probably don't want to know how salami is made.
