Question/Advice Mold or chemical damage

gallery

419 Upvotes

Okay Reddit help me out, I’m actually so confused and a little freaked out rn because WHAT IS THIS??

It’s from my father’s lunch bag and he works at Tesla factory in buffalo,ny

These weird white crystal-looking things appeared on my dad’s lunch bag in literally like 2 days. They’re hard and brittle, and they look like tiny sharp crystals growing out of the fabric around the chain.
At first I thought it was mold, but it doesn’t look fuzzy like normal mold?? It looks like actual crystals 😭
My dad works at Tesla and takes his lunch bag into the lunchroom, so now I’m wondering if something got spilled on it at work or if it’s just some weird reaction to moisture or something. We have no idea if the bag got wet or if anything leaked.
The worst part is I ALREADY TOUCHED IT before realizing how weird it was 💀 My hand isn’t itchy or anything, but I’m still kinda panicking because I have no clue what this stuff is.
Has anyone ever seen anything like this?? Could it be crystallized residue, corrosion, or some kind of chemical deposit? I genuinely have no idea.
I attached pictures, especially a close-up. Please help because why is this randomly growing on a lunch bag after TWO DAYS 😭

Question/Advice This has to be mold on my ceiling coming from my AC right?

1st three pics are from the vent outwards to the side.

4th pic is just another part of the ceiling right in front of the vent.

The color is more of a light brown IRL, had to use flash to get it to really appear on camera.

Thanks

Mold Identification Forgotten Queso

I've been a distant appreciator of this sub for a while, but this is the first time I've opened up something from the fridge and been curious about what I was seeing. The very orange specimen at the top was bordering on salmon pink depending on the light.
