      Lol.

      A cheesesteak without sautéed onions and mushrooms is sacrelege, and I don’t love mushrooms, didn’t like them for the longest time. It was probably the cheesesteak that got me to like them at all.

      (BTW, you got my upvote, because I have a sense of humor!)

        If I want to cook in anger, I keep them in view of my work station until I’m finished preparing a meal out of spite. Otherwise, first task of the mise en place is to take the fungus out of the bag and throw it into the garbage.

      lol I have a few friends like you, they just can’t eat mushrooms and they’ve tried so many varieties.

      I think there’s the Chinese wood ear mushroom was the only ones that they enjoyed served Sichuan style.

      I thought it was just one friend being picky but when I made more friends I realized it was a real thing.

        Yea, I’ve tried them cooked a few different ways. Never really enjoyed them personally, although I would like to find a way I do enjoy them. Maybe I’ll give the wood ear one that you mentioned a try if I ever find it being prepared somewhere.

        Also, I love how people downvote a lighthearted comment about throwing away mushrooms like I’ve offened their family lineage. Keep em coming, those shits are nasty! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

          Shiitake mushrooms were my gateway mushrooms. It also depends how they are cooked.

          Growing up my parents would barely cook the mushrooms, so when I’d find one by accident and bite into it I’d get gross earthy mushroom juice 🤢.
