That jar of cheap pasta sauce from last month almost ruined dinner for 8 people last night

Opened a jar of store brand sauce I bought on clearance 3 weeks ago and the whole thing had mold floating on top right as guests were pulling up.

Almost ruined"? It's just moldy sauce, not a car crash.

Read a study once that said even old moldy cheese can be pretty harmless depending on the type, just cut off a big chunk around the spot. But tomato sauce is a different beast, especially if it's been sitting open in the fridge. I remember hearing some food safety folks say if you see fuzzy mold on something wet like sauce, just toss it cause the roots can spread way further than you think.
