Quorn Mince - black on top

I've just cooked myself some Quorn Mince in a tomato sauce. I left some of it in the pan while I was eating for just over an hour and it had gone black on top. Anyone else found this before? Reckon it's OK?

No, but this was on the top. The bottom part, touching the bottom of the pan, was fine!
It's Quorn, of course it's not OK. :yucky:

I thought dust and bad dreams.

However our science teacher said it is mostly mycoprotein (made from a fungus) combined with egg whites.

Ah thank you! That makes sense, it was only the bits sticking out of the sauce that went black. Happens surprisingly quickly!
It's clearly gonorrhea. Wouldn't eat that mince if I were you.
