Mushrooms grow in an amazing variety all around the world. Some are edible, many are poisonous.

Shiitake mushrooms were probably the first cultivated mushrooms with some evidence pointing to Chinese cultivation more than 1000 years ago.

For centuries mushrooms have played a part in medicinal and spiritual practices from the Chinese to Native Americans.

Types of mushrooms with a "meaty" flavor are often used as a meat replacement in vegetarian offerings.
