Yes, moldy bread has multiple toxins and other unhealthy things due to the mold growth. If you see any mold in a bread, it should be thrown out immediately.

If the mold is part of the product - as in blue cheese, brie or some salamis - and you are not allergic to molds, then you can safely eat them. If the mold is not a normal part of the food - as in moldy bread, tomatoes or sour cream - then, it shows that the food is spoiling and should be discarded.

Some molds can cause allergic and respiratory problems. Some other molds can produce mycotoxins that can make people sick. When you see mold on food, check beneath the surface of food to where mold takes root. If it's clean down there, the surface mold can be cut off.

These are safe in any case:

Hard cheese, hard salami and cured meat, and firm fruits and veggies. The mold can be cut off.

Unsafe:

Anything moist or soft.

It is possible, yes, but not 100% guarenteed. It will depend on how much you ate, what your immune system's strength is like, and if the mold was dangerous or not.

I would not recommend eating mold as some of it produces harmful toxins plus I don't think it would taste very good. Some forms of mold are used in food production and for medicinal purposes. Molds used for these purposes are normally grown in a very controlled environment. The mold Penicillium chrysogenum is used in the production of the drug penicillin.
