I don't remember who suggested it, but I would follow the advice of leaving it alone now that you cut what you think was mold off. Leave it sit for a few day's and see if you notice more mold growing on it. It is better to be out a little money than have to make a trip to the emergency room. I would take the better safe than sorry route on this one. Watch it for a few day's and if it doesn't look like any more mold has grown and you feel comfortable smoking it go ahead and try. I haven't had any experience with mold either, but that is the way I would handle it.
