Don't be fooled by the name - these are FROM CHINA, January 24, 2009

(REAL NAME)
These dried mushrooms are called "funghi porcini" on the label,
implying that they are of Italian origin. Nowhere in the product
description is the country of origin listed, as it is with more
scrupulous retailers. I took the chance and bought these based on the
name, discovering later that these mushrooms are a product of China.
Actually "China/Yugoslavia", which is even worse as it suggests not
only questionable harvesting practices but that the mushrooms have been
sitting around since the early 1990s.
