Your body is always eating some form of spore that floats in the air and lands on food, your hand, your mouth, or someone elses mouth. Your stomach contains a gastric acid, the purpose of which is to kill these molds. But then it depends on how much mold one injests. If the gastric acid can't handle the amount of mold, it will cause your body to react and vomit the uninvited guest.

Eating moldy jerky can be dangerous as consuming mold-contaminated food can lead to food poisoning or gastrointestinal issues. Mold can produce mycotoxins that are harmful to human health, so it's best to discard any moldy food items to avoid potential health risks.

It depends on what kind of mold and whether you are allergic or not. I wouldn't recommend it, but I have done it before without any negative consequences other than psychological when I turned on the light and saw that it was moldy.

If you start feeling really sick, or you are allergic to mold, I would recommend consulting a doctor.
