Definitely bleu cheese. Ah, the power of cheese.
From Wikipedia:
"Although the presence of mold may indicate unwanted decay, some molds are cultivated deliberately; for example in making certain types of cheese, and for the production of antibiotics derived from their natural defenses against bacteria. Alexander Fleming's famous discovery of penicillin involved the mold Penicillium notatum."
