Yes.
The texture is all wrong. And the color is too. Looks like yeast to me, but could be mold.

Don't throw out the jars, PC cook them just like you sterilized them and then empty it out outside with plastic bags covering it. when you empty them don't even touch it just boil the jars for a couple of minutes then wash em with soap. Never touch the verm even if its myc. Contaminated jars are bombs and if you open it in your house/grow area, May the lord have mercy on the mushys

Just steam sterilize them if you do not have a PC and dump them.
Once sterilized the spores are dead, so it is ok to dump it in the house garbage, then take it out.
After that, just wash it with soap and water like normal and reuse.

You don't have to sterilize jars before you reuse them. Just wash them out with soap and water, and your next PC cycle will kill whatever remains.

From my experience opening a sterilized or non sterilized contaminated jar in my house is a bomb...literally...the smell, Oh gawd.

I just open them under running hot water, so the spores can't escape, never let the cake be out of water, bag, and toss.
