Reasons to Home Grown Mushrooms



1.   Safety
Growing your own mushrooms eliminates the risk of misidentification. How many of you know the differences between your favorite mushroom and toxic mushrooms that may look like your favorites. There are some toxic mushrooms that look exactly like edible ones and you have to run other identification tests to really tell what type of mushroom it is. Hundreds of people are hospitalized every year, some people have even died, because they ate a toxic look alike mushroom

2.  Taste
Home grown mushrooms just taste better. Freshly picked mushrooms taste so much better than store bought mushrooms it's incredible. There is a richness, a heightened mushroomy taste present in freshly picked mushrooms that is absent in store bought mushrooms. You have to remember that mushrooms at most stores are, on average, between 2 and 5 days old. During this time chemical changes occur in the mushroom that alters the taste. The alteration in taste is more than just the taste has faded or decreased.
