But cutting around the mold on cheese is fine, right? Right???

Hard cheeses, yes, if you cut well around it. Soft cheeses, not so much. This, of course, only applies to mold that the cheese grew after you bought it, and not any from its curing. How do you tell the difference? Devilish rhinoceros.

How do you tell the difference?

From experience. I once ate a big bite of Roquefort with the wrong mold....
