I always presumed it was mouldy, but now you mention it, it does make sense if it is moulded, as in shaped. We know the foodstuffs can take many forms- the same substance can be a chocolate cake or a roast potato. What if they use protein re-sequencers to turn boxes of amino acids, sugars, salts and vitamins into whatever food they need...

Can you just picture a protein resequencer in that galley?

well my pet theory is that the 'protein' that the crew eats so much of is soy. it can be made into just about anything from milk to meat and is really low in fat.

plus in the shooting script it's 'molded'
