Not a huge mushroom person tbh.
Finely diced mushroom (using an electric chopper is good for large quantities) fried down makes for a really good meat alternative or meat extender. Even better when you add some deceptively-named mushroom seasoning:
Call me overly cautious but I don't eat raw mushroom as I don't like the texture, which is good because I wouldn't anyway as some mushroom varieties contain agaratine which is mutagentic and carcinogenic.
Is it as carcinogenic as breathing while refilling a tank of gas or eating acrylamide-heavy fried food or getting some delicious benzene in that you get from many different types of soda? Idk. But it's still not worth the risk imo.
