Lynn's Notes:

I don't remember mushrooms being a bone of contention for us growing up because fresh ones were too expensive and canned ones simply disappeared into the stew. Mushroom soup was a staple gravy base and casserole sauce, so it didn't count either. When actual fresh fungi were finally introduced to our palates, we were all grown up. It's our children who have had the luxury of rejecting one of the most delicious culinary delights known to man!

No Fungus Among US! That was what my sister and I said when my Mom tried to give us mushrooms. Of course we had been eating them all along be we couldn't see them! :)

You never know. I don't have food allergies in the normal sense of the word, but one mushroom and I'm bowing before the porcelain altar for 24 hours, and limp as a rag in bed on the warm-Coca-Cola diet for a week.

I loved putting fresh mushrooms in my spaghetti sauce, but my picky eaters would pick them out. So I ground them with other veggies in the food processor...the kids couldn't tell what was in the sauce besides ground meat, and they loved it!
