lol, I was appalled at the white blob at first, too Definitely looks like bug poo to me, thank goodness you inspected it! 
DRs F & S is a great vendor though, and Im glad they reached out to you.

I think the white blob was part of a piece of nut... I'm not entirely sure though, I remember it registering on my radar when I ripped the toy open, as a piece of food in a weird shape, but I didn't inspect it any further than that.
It definitely wasn't mildew (at least, the majority of it) because the brown specs were actually dry little pieces of... poop I'm guessing. The brown spots may have been mildew, but I've seen mildew on paper before, and it didn't resemble that (honestly, when I first bought the toy, the brown spots almost looked like scorch marks, which isn't any less concerning I don't suppose, ha). I did keep the toy in a very dry location and nothing in the room where it was sitting has ever suffered from humidity at all, much less to the extent that mildew would need (books, etc., and no humidity damage). But perhaps prior to shipping...? then again, there's the fact that the brown pieces were hard/dry.
I really have no idea at this point. I'm suspecting it's poop, but the toy is now buried in our garbage can, so I'm not going to dig through trash to get the toy to rip it open outside... probably. Lol.

Lol.
Oh, that is awful!
Maybe Dr. Fosters Smith has to purchase gigantic qtys. in order to get the discounts. Therefore they sit for way too much time in a warehouse.
Those come wrapped in plastic too.
Disgusting to say the least, the blob is what grossed me out.
