I found some mold on a dish drying mat in my kitchen where i had been drying dishes. i do not know how long its been on the mat.  It was also some on the counter beneath the mat.  I immediately threw it out.  But is it harmful that we may have eaten off of the dishes that were on the mat?  None of us have been sick or anything.  I threw the mat away and washed down the counter tops.  We have a 5 year old and i want to make sure we are fine. Thanks
