Yesterday I didn’t know that the peanuts were moldy and I ate some more. I wonder if this would cause cancer?

    Many foods are moldy when the weather is humid. The foods most susceptible to mold contamination are peanuts, corn, rice, sorghum and peanut oil. It is particularly important to emphasize that people with hepatitis B are more likely to develop liver cancer when exposed to aflatoxin.
