I like mushrooms very much, and think they're a bit underappreciated. I propose growing ones which are a bit bigger closed cup style musrooms (about the size of an apple) which are presented in a chiller cabinet near the confectionery in a supermarket.
each would be an ideal choice for a lunch add-on
instead of packs of crisps, or indeed, the apple.

If I were to propose growing olives which were pre-stuffed with anchovy, what would your reaction be? |
|
| |
I'd give you a bun [angel] :) |
|
| |
How exactly are you proposing to develop these spherical mushrooms? Genetic engineering? |
|
| |
no.. def. not GM mushrooms, I'd never do that to the fella's. |
|
| |
Just grow them in spherical 'moulds'
([DrC] did you set me up for that?) |
|
| |
get them to grow into little round hats, now I like that a lot! |
|
| |
Douse them with Mushroom Hormones. |
|
| |
If the size is the issue, just sell horse mushrooms. They are whoppers and taste gorgeous. |
|
| |
horse mushrooms [squeak] I found a photo, but with no scale.. how big is one? |
|
| |
B.I.G. (up to about 8 inches across I think). |
|
| |
A bit flavorless for my taste. Add some kind of dip and I'd consider it. Has this idea evolved from GE to a simple recipe? (one ingredient: horse mushroom) - |
|
| |
was never GE or GM [WE] just good breeding. |
|

I don't mean to be negative about this idea, but I think that people who don't like mushrooms won't start buying them only because they come in a new presentation (the bigger, the nastier for those who dislike them) and those who do like mushrooms will eat them, big or small. |

I just wonder (hope) there might be a whole generation out there looking for a new vegetarian snack, and think it's worth a punt. Thanks [Pericles]. Slightly bigger though, really does make it a snack option |

grow them into egg shaped moulds for easter |
