Given how long mushrooms have existed I would probably say that most species have not evolved because they stated to be eaten. mycelia has been on this planet long before animals started swimming around and eating each other, far longer than anything started to crawl on the surface, plant life had been thriving for sometime and it s more likely that our digestive systems and over all anatomy was either coincidentally or by some unfortunate design flaws some species were poisonous and some were beneficial.
No doubt after the arrival of primordial creatures we began to mutually affect each-other but I d still argue most species have remained the same.

So strange to me that Americans call tempeh and tofu 'meat substitutes'. Anyway here are some bonus mycelium facts: they will battle each other for territory and they have a type of 'memory' that means if they find a good food source they will move towards that area even if you completely remove part of the mycelium connected to the food.

I actually rewatched the episode of What's Eating Dan? from America's Test Kitchen about why it's impossible to overcook mushrooms earlier today, then this popped up. Is this a sign that I need to cook/eat more mushrooms (which I love if they're cooked properly and paired with meat like on a burger?

I love the fact that Adam not only gets experts in the field and scientists who know this stuff like the back of their hand, he chooses to go his local experts. Maybe it's just convenient for him, but I find it really cool to see what people just in the state are doing.

Fun fact: fungi account for more than half of the biomass in most ecosystems, especially forests. add up all the mass of all the trees, all the other plants, all the insects, animals, even bacteria, and there's more fungus in the area than all of that combined.

3: 39 That's actually where petroleum comes from. It wasn't dinosaurs. Dinosaurs came later. Petroleum is (mostly) hundreds of millions of years of dead trees that never decomposed, because fungi hadn't evolved the ability to break down lignan yet.

My mom go pick mushrooms in the woods every week-end in autumn, it's not that complicated, at least here in France there's two or three very recognizable, very tasty species that you aim for, and the rest you just don't touch them

I come from country where its kind of common to go into forest and forage the mushrooms you plan to eat. Only pick up shrooms you are sure that are edible. Also its very common to found them in the farmer markets in towns.

EmmyMadeInJapan did a video a while ago, where her husband and kids went foraging for a large type of mushroom and made it into fried chicken. It was really interesting to watch. I love mushrooms
