i heard a radio program of a speech by some quasi-famous mycologist who said that button mushrooms contain a carcinogen that's also found in rocket fuel, and that it's not broken down by heat. yum yum! on the other hand, he said that exotic mushrooms like shitake and oysters have been linked to longevity in asian populations.
he also talked about other stuff like using fungi to break down toxins in the environment. fascinating stuff. maybe i should join mella and become a mycologist.

Well the 'magic' ones are not that good for you, and the other ones are not on the anti yeast diet.
