Default softening brown sugar

The method I learned from mom was to put a slice of bread in the bag. Here
and there they say to use a slice of apple, but I don't always have apples.
Usually not in fact.

The bread always got dry and not moldy, until the latest instance in which
the bread got green mold. Fortunately there was not much sugar left, but
maybe that was the reason, since it didn't absorb all the bread's moisture.

Is apple really better, and can't it get moldy too? Shouldn't a small wad
of damp paper towel work, in theory?
