Does anyone have green dots in their brita water filter?

I took out my old brita filter, and the four holes in the bottom had green dots in it, not just the black I was expecting for the carbon. So I thought it was mold. I bought a new package of filters, and ALL FOUR fillters had the green little balls in them. Does anyone else have these little green balls in their filter ( in bottom four holes) . Is yours just black ( carbon) and I thus have mold?? Help!!!

I’ve been using a Brita water filter pitcher for several years, and I don’t recall ever seeing green dots in the filter cartridges. Their FAQ section says spare filters should be kept in a cool, dry, place, but they should last indefinitely.
You can send Brita’s customer support a question at http://www.brita.com/index_us.html , or call them: 1-800-24-27482. (This is contact info. for U.S. customers.) Ask them what’s going on! If they say this is normal, please post that info. Thanks.
If they are new, it probably isn’t mold. It might just be what is in the plastic or whatever.
