Hi Everyone! I'm back with sooooo much to share with all of you great people...I know the 1970s were the Quaalude era but this is taking things too far. Enforcing mellowness? ...
I just came across an article about mushrooms:
In Asia, mushrooms are favored for their earthy flavor and their therapeutic properties. Ancient Chinese lore is filled with legends of mortals that stumbled upon a 1,000-year-old mushroom and attained immortality.
Not too long ago, I was in Kunming, China, and in an underground stalactite cave, I discovered a reishi mushroom that measured four feet in diameter and was carbon dated to be 800 years old!
There are over 100,000 varieties of mushrooms in existence, about 700 of which are edible. Some of the excellent anti-aging mushroom varieties include: maitake, reishi, shiitake, and tree ear. Mushrooms have been discovered to contain a wealth of nutrients.
Depending on the type of mushroom, they may contain amino acids, antioxidants, coumarin, polysaccharides, sterols, as well as many other vitamins and minerals that boost your immunity, lower bad cholesterol, balance blood sugar, and protect your body from cancer and virus.
The next time you are in the mood to search for an elixir, you don't have to dig for mushrooms in the mountains; you can readily find them in your local health food stores. Try oyster mushrooms, chanterelle, Portobello, or even truffles, and the star of the recipe below: porcini mushrooms.

I eat mushrooms all the time. They are great tasting and easy to eat. Easy to eat for the lack of teeth to chew with
