Nail polish remover is usually acetone, and that's probably the chemical being released by the mold in your bread. Although the mold is most likely harmless, there are a few nasty molds that infect grains. Acetone itself is toxic, but the levels in your bread are probably too low to do any damage.I found this site that says an acetone smell is a common problem in the early stages of creating a sourdough starter:http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/3496/acetone...

I just had bread like that the other day. It was a fresh baked Italian loaf about 3 days old. I ended up eating it (I made a hamburger and need something to eat it on).I didn't get sick. But I'm a beast. I wouldn't eat it if I were you. It's not worth the risk.... Show More

Are you seriously asking this question? Why would you eat ANYTHING that smells like that? You need to find some other way to get attention.... Show More
