mushrooms

Bloggers writing about mushrooms are most likely to be cooks sharing their recipes, or diners sharing their love of the fungi.

But mushrooms are also used for more food. They are also used as recreational drugs. Some bloggers are writing about hallucinogenic magic mushrooms, which are illegal in some jurisdictions.

Others are enjoying the glorious photogenic qualities of wild mushrooms and other fungi - or seeking to identify those that they've found.

But do be careful, for some bloggers are noting deaths that have occurred when poisonous and non-poisonous species have been confused.
