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.
