Inspired by Meri.
I don't so much hate mushrooms as I hate the mere thought of mushrooms. And by not "so much hating" mushroom I mean I don't actually hate them. Just just hate the idea of mushrooms. They seem to have little to no taste but when I manage to identify their texture in a meal I feel revulsion. Had I not know there were mushrooms in the stew I just ate I would have lived my life without any issue. But, the act of knowing that there are mushrooms in a dish feeds a visceral emotional purely psychological distaste for that dish.
As for onions, really good in soups and broths and stews where the add to the savory/umami'ness of a dish.
My thoughts on mushrooms?
Usually, all trippy, man. :D
I hate mushrooms. Totally disgusting.
Delicious.
Particularly good with steak and on Pizzas.
Also very, very good as a side dish with a sauce.
Large types stuffed and roasted a particular favourite. :mmm:
But then, what do I know; I think stuffed lamb's hearts are one of the top ten meat dishes in the world but 99% of people seem to find the thought of eating them revolting.
Awesome.
I love mushrooms.
Go well with badgers.
Mushrooms rule. Love the texture & taste both raw and cooked.

Mushrooms were not inspired by Meri! :mad:
Love em. On pizza, in sauces, and as a side (sautéed with garlic).
Mushrooms is good food.
I'll occasionally have some grilled mushrooms with steak or pork, though I'm not a big fan.
I had a half Polish, half Italian bunkie in college. Went to the manse for Thanksgiving, his mom (Italian) made some stuffed mushrooms that I just hoovered up like they were heroin.
Not crack, heroin.
Love them. Yes, they can be totally tasteless in some dishes, but even then they don't ruin the dish.
:mmm: :wub: :weep:
Mushrooms are delicious
If I didn't have to feed Max, I would put mushrooms in any and all dishes that I could. I loveded them.
Did you useded to love them, or do you still loved them now? :hmm:
I'm not a huge fan of raw mushrooms. I really like them cooked, but don't buy them that much for some reason. Honestly, it's probably because they aren't really visible in the produce section. :blush:
Sprouts are what *I* can't stand.

:hug: Agreed completely, kill them with fire.

C'mon, it's not like you're smoking them.
Where does it say you NEED to feed him, he has two hands doesn't he?
I've been slowly warming up to mushrooms. They're still very much in the category of "I like them as a topper ONLY" for me- I'm quite the sucker for a mushroom pizza or a burger with sauteed 'shrooms and swiss cheese. And I have been known to have the VERY occasional portabello steak (fuck Chrome for not recognizing "portabello" as a valid word, BTW).
Other than that, though, I don't touch 'em.
I enjoy nice sauteed mushrooms. Also good on a salad.
Mean sauteed mushrooms are literally the worst.
Also if you can find them morels are tasty, tasty mushrooms. I remember as a young boy, I found some at my grandma's house. She cooked them and they were delicious.
Mushrooms sauteed with garlic and with sour cream alongside a good rare steak - good. They're also necessary for most game dishes in my opinion.
They're not integral to any dish, in my opinion, but make a fine sideshow.

If you don't put them in stuffed mushrooms, I find the final product lacks something.
The food of death. They grow out of poop and their texture makes it clear.
Mihali, we're having stuffed for dinner today.

Still do, but Max doesn't, so I don't get to eat them very often now. :(
