Has anyone else heard of this?

I recieved this in an email and it states in 2008 , cake , biscuits and brownie mix was included.

I usually ignore these a urban legends but this is the source in which I validate my "urban legends" by.

I've heard about this. Apparently the mixes will grow molds that become a toxin of sorts. If the person has an allergy, it can be fatal for them.

A lot of this can be prevented by putting the mixes into the freezer. Freezing prevents mold growth. I keep my flour in the freezer for this reason as well as not getting bugs in it. I mean my household flour, not my bakery flour

I heard about the college kid dying. This is why FIFO is imperative as well as date labeling your products when received.
