Many people think mushrooms are absolutely magical (and not just the hallucinogenic kind). But this vegetarian staple also has its haters.
For some, it’s the texture. For others, it’s the weird way they grow. And there’s also the unsettling fact that a mushroom is not a vegetable but an actual fungus.
If you can’t stand mushrooms, know that you’re not alone. Here are 20 funny tweets sure to resonate with the haters.

in order to tell if your mushrooms have gone bad, ask yourself, this is basically mold why did I think this was a good thing to eat anyway
