If people are buying mushrooms, then they must also be about ready to eat berries and grapes again.
So far, I have only bought fresh fruit and fresh vegetables that I can give a quick wash with soap and water.
Cubed ham, 4 eggs, green pepper, onion. mushrooms and Swiss cheese make for a great omelet. I make them often.
That’s it, I gotta cook some dinner!
I have been buying fresh blueberries for the last 6 weeks.
I leave them on my back porch for a couple of days, and then wipe off the container before putting them in the fridge.
That is a very delicious (and nutritious) breakfast!
Always a good side to everything, right?
Will be interesting to see what becomes changed
It’s a shroom boom.
I ordered take out pizza from a local place by Fort Jackson last night.
When I picked up, waiting in line for 3 to a room and picked up, one of the hard-working pizza place people had to tell every call in order they were out of mushrooms.
When I picked up, there were maybe 8 people outside. After being inside for about 10 minutes, the line was all around the perimeter of the parking lot.
Small lot. I guess 20 people.
Mushrooms are fairly high in zinc. Not the best source of zinc, but probably in the top twenty food sources.
Were they “magic” mushrooms? 8>)
I will buy berries before I buy grapes...
because grapes are manhandled. Some just pick out the amount of grapes that they want.
I'm thinking some had to learn the hard way.
They’re out of beef, what do you want instead? Mushrooms.
Yes, I have mostly been sticking to fruits and veggies that are prepackaged.
On the items that are individually selected, I usually buy things that I will cook.
I miss my takeout salads that I used to buy several times a week, but I would not touch a tossed salad made by someone else right now.
“I sometimes wonder how early humans were able to identify poison mushrooms.”
Trial and error. Cave republicans figured it out long before democrat counterparts.
