Hi
If the food is not listed how do you find out how many calories it contains. I am talking specifically about puff ball mushrooms which is a mushroom that grows wild in the bush. We found one today and I want to have it for supper but not if it's too many calories

  • I googled calories puffball mushrooms and found this site: http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calories.asp?recipe=736546 It's a recipe that includes puffball mushrooms and they say this:

    25 calories of Mushrooms, fresh, (112.50 grams)

    It sounds like lots of people eat these, I'm a morel hunter, but ONLY eat morels. Enjoy, they are low cal if you don't deep fry them. ;-)

    Google is a wonderful thing.

    We used to have morels in our backyard and I SO miss them!
