Badger badger badger badger MUSHROOM

Why don't my friends like mushrooms? Everyone seems to hate them these days, whereas in the past things were pretty well divided between the violently anti-mushroom and violently pro-mushroom camps.

I don't see how you couldn't like them. They don't have much flavor. It must be the texture - I can see how the canned ones are a bit squishy. Is that the problem? They're wet and raw and wriggly... like fisssssssshessssss.

As my grandma says any time we disagree with her about anything, "You just don't know what's good."

I'm with you in the mushroom-loving camp there, srah. Two of my buds are vehemently anti-shroom (including my girl), and their argument summed up is that they 'taste like ass'. I have to disagree. They're wonderful, lovely little things. Virtually free food if you're counting carbs or fat grams or whatever, and they're so versatile. I don't know how vegetarians could survive without them. I'd be interested to know of ones who do. Hurrah for the 'shroomage! :D

My roommate is the only person I know that I'm safe asking for mushrooms on pizza with. If Megan had been hanging out with us on Friday night, we probably would not have gotten that lovely mushroom and onion pizza. Yum.

I don't love them, but they're okay. My wife hates them, but she's never said they "taste like ass'
I guess she doesn't have the same frame of reference as krista's friends.

wheter on pizza, or anywhere else. I prefer the big raw sliced mushrooms, to the canned wet squishy type.

You do of course realize that when you're eating a mushroom, you're eating FUNGUS.

I'm in the shroom-hating camp, yes.

Goddammit, I just got that badger/mushroom/snake song out of my head.

gravatar katie - October 14, 2003 - 8:12 AM -

Hee hee. It's a funny song.

I like mushrooms sometimes, and not other times. So, I guess you could call me a double agent.

Just to mess with your dataset: I love mushrooms. Cooked. Can't stand raw ones. My brother likes mushrooms raw, but not cooked. One of many ways we tortured my mother.

Nope, nope. Violently anti-mushroom. Turns my stomach just to think about them.

That song relates to the magical variety of shrooms. Just put them in some strong tea and it's all good. The badgers will eat the evil snakes if you treat them right.

I like the "SNAAAAKE, It's a SNAAAAAAKE" part. But that's just me.
