Could an admins add that this is an idiom. Not to be translated litterally.
Thanks.

Actually, this is not a real idiom, the original idiom goes: "For mange kokke fordærver maden" (In English, that would correspond to "too many cooks spoil the broth/stew/soup" ) and the version to be translated says "too much mould spoils the food" which I guess is just a humouristic way of stating the obvious....
