MUSHROOMS

Post » Fri Feb 07, 2014 2:27 pm

A mushroom walks into a party ?
You cant come in here
Why not I'm a Fungi ?

Hey whats the deal with all the mushrooms ? They're in alot of video games, I took notice of this when I first saw the Centipede game cabnit back in the 80s. They're in all the games have you ever noticed this ?

Do you like mushrooms ? Me? No. If you insist keep them on your side of the pizza. I use mushroom soup in my recipes sometimes oddly enough and it doesn't bother me.

Any mycologists out there ?

Ever feel like a mushroom ?
Do they keep you in the dark and feed you [censored] ?

I had a mushroom phobia until I was like 10, and I would go great lengths to avoid encountering them in my everyday life. One consequence is that I grew more fascinated of them, so yeah I like mushrooms and I have a decent knowledge of them.

I don't care for them personally, but am understanding of people that do.

Mushrooms are alright, but their texture is a turn-off when they're cooked. Uncooked mushrooms are good, but I don't see the point of putting them on pizza and stuff since they don't really add to the flavor.

Not particularly.

In the case of Japanese video games I always thought it might have something to do with hallucinogenic mushrooms being legal in Japan until 2002. :tongue:

Seriously?

Damn, I should have taken that trip to Toyko back in high school.

Probably explains a lot of their cartoons.

Trippy bro

Also, mushrooms are disgusting, never can bring myself to eat them. Whenever I have a chicken and mushroom pot noodle (the best kind), there's always a load of mushrooms at the bottom.

I think they were legal in the UK until 2005, but not the dried out kind as they were way more potent or something.

Me, I love 'em. I buy the cheap white-caps at Wal-Mart and add 'em to my salads. I also eat 'em as-is during meal prep. They do tend to spoil rather quickly...by the end of the week (grocery wise) they're barely edible. But while still fresh they have a yummy taste.

Love creme of mushroom soup too.

Didn't eat 'em as a kid...either mom or dad (or both) didn't like 'em, so never kept any in the house.

I used to hate mushrooms. Everything from their rubbery texture to their almost dirt like earthy flavor. Turns out I was eating the wrong kinds of mushrooms.

1 part two quarters of shrooms 2 parts middle of the night in winter 3 parts walk through the woods of your elementary school and roll around in the snow like you are going to live there finally fear that a deer is bleeding under a mound of snow, realize its a stream, and forget which way you came from.

Yeah, I was walking down the street in Ebisu (Tokyo) one day in 2000 and was really surprised to see people selling them legally at sidewalk stands and such. :blink:

I, uh, wouldn't know.

Me and mushrooms have made a deal, they stay outside and i stay inside. I can tolerate the odd mushroom in a pizza, but i don't go out of my way to eat them. Everyone else in my family loves them, though :shrug:

I do like how they look though, a big amarita or bolete somehow looks nice to me :happy: But i'm not going eat them. Especially the poisonous one. (Using a translator here since i don't know the names myself. Try to ignore if i'm saying something odd :hehe:).

My friend is like that with spiders. I think he still is phobic around them though.

I don't like mushrooms all that much.

Oklahoma still has plenty of Western Sizzlin places open----I might have to pay them a visit once this weather clears up.

There's mushroom soup, and mushroom soup.

No seriously. If someone knows how to make a good soup, mushroom soup is incredibly good. Stupidly good.

I like mycology, but I can not stand mushrooms as a food.
