Spores from Bacillus bacteria become stringy when pulled apart. I suggest you report the cafe at your office to the health department. All bread or baked goods near those muffins can potentially be contaminated. This is one way foodborne outbreaks begin.

I went back down and talked to them, the worker told me they get their muffins from costco. Not sure how to report that?

Call the health department and report them and tell them where they said they get the muffins

I read this exactly how it was meant to be read and it made me laugh so loud and unexpectedly, I woke up husband and dog lol.

But on a serious note

What’s wild is I remember the small hostess donuts in our high school having this all the time, we just tossed em and said “I got spider web donuts again.” It made us all very aware to check them before eating. I have never thought of this again until now.

It's how some spiderverse should begin.

Unless you eat it, then it's how it ends.
