I guess hate is a strong word. As I like to say, if it ain't meat or a vegetable, I'm not eating. ๐ It's the texture I suppose. I've never had yours before.
Totally fair.
Mushrooms can be weird and the most common ones we see (shiitake, button mushrooms, etc) are very similar in texture. Kinda boring, and I understand why they can be off-putting.
Gourmet mushrooms like this do not transport or store very well so they are not ideal for mass distribution. It's a shame, honestly. Mushrooms have such a wide variety of tastes, textures and appearances. You probably wouldn't even know it was a mushroom I fed it to you, TBH.
Then there are the fun mushrooms that I also grow... Those will just rock your world. ;)
Thanks for all this. Have fun with those mushrooms! :D
