i seriously LOVE mushrooms.
i could eat them with every meal. and sometimes it seems like i do. contrary to what many people think when they meet me, i’m not a vegetarian or vegan and i do not follow a rigid diet plan of any kind — however, i do try to eat about 80-90% fruits and vegetables every day. i find that mushrooms make a great meat substitute, mostly for the texture. some of my favourite meat substitutes are mushrooms. the texture is great, there is such a variety, and i just LOVE the flavour! of all kinds, really… i don’t necessarily find the need to “substitute” my meat, it’s just that i find my body doesn’t crave the meat as much as it does fish or beans or other proteins. every now and again i’ll have a burger or once in a blue moon i’ll have a steak, however i can’t remember the last time i did that. point is – mushrooms are great!
