I wonder if there exists people who aggressively believe mushrooms are plants, similar to people who defend Pluto as a planet. (slrpnk.net)

The mycelium, maybe. That is definitely not the part of the mushroom that you eat.

so hang on, mushrooms are like uh, well not milk, but as if say a cow regrew its meat every season? or maybe like a lizard that regrows its tail?

mushrooms are weird, man

wild idea, would it be possible to hijack mycelium with animal DNA and make it grow mushroom shaped meat??
