    other then vitamins almost no nutritional value whatsoever but god do they taste great, except for cooked eww... dont like mushy mushrooms.

    ..What else do you look for in terms of nutritional value?

    No way. I worked as a guard at a mushroom packing facility during college. I guarantee you'd never eat mushrooms again!

    Those pesky mushroom thieves!

    I have never met a mushroom I didn't like, except the canned ones ( any canned vegetable is nasty).

    I love them. But they are a natural laxative. Over eating them can upset your tummy, esp if you have other tummy problems.

    My brother works in mushroom research at a major university and I've toured the facility where they are grown and research is done. I didn't see anything that would be a put-off for eating them.
    Curious as to why you would say that...

    Anyway - definite mushroom lover here!

    LOOOOVEE THEM!

    I used to think they were gross (but then again, I thought that about almost all vegetables) but I could eat them with every meal. Mmmmmmmmmmmm :heart:

    I can't believe how low calorie mushrooms are and low carb!! Why aren't the given the acknowledgement they deserve?

    because they are in fact disgusting.

    LOL, agreed! I hate mushrooms. I hate the name, the look, the taste... just yuck. There are some things I wish I liked just for the health benefits, like fish. I hate seafood but I wish I didn't. Mushrooms are another story, I hate them and do not wish that I didn't. I don't understand how they even became a consumable... I mean who looked at a mushroom and said "Yeah, I think I'll eat that... it looks tasty"??

    As a former mushroom hater, I think they're the most versatile vegetable and it's like anything else if you haven't fallen in love yet it's because you haven't found the right one, prepared the right way. There's a gateway mushroom for everyone and preparation of that mushroom that would change your life. I think back on my years of mushroom bashing and feel sad for the mushrooms I could have eaten :)

    No kidding! It's called "wash you food before eating it." Clean eating is where it's at! :laugh:
