Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mushrooms and Other Common Fungi To judge from the statements of early authors, for many centuries Wild mushrooms have been eagerly collected and eaten, especially in Germany, France, and Italy. Perhaps the only recorded voice of absolute protest came from the' ancient Hindus, Who considered those Who ate mushrooms, Whether springing from the ground or growing on a tree, fully equal in guilt to the slayers of Brahmins. Although early history records the use of mushrooms and the high esteem in Which they Were held by the ancients, it is true that their nutritive value has been greatly exaggerated and is not high and that they are not as life sustaining as meat, in spite of the frequent assertions of enthusiastic mycophagists to the contrary.

Download or read book Michigan Mushrooms written by Burton Orange Longyear and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Michigan Mushrooms: A Few of the Common Edible Fungi Occurring in the State The abundance and variety of fleshy fungi found growing in dooryards, fields and woods at certain seasons of the year have doubtless attracted the attention of many persons in this State. These plants are especially numerous during the spring and autumn months and whenever there is a plentiful rainfall during the summer. However, they are usually passed by and left for the worms or scattered with a kick. Thus a free offering frequently near our very door-step may be neglected or spurned while the same product is being imported from foreign lands and sold for a high price in the markets. Naturally the question arises why pay fifty cents to one dollar a pound for mushrooms from France or for hot house grown material when a generous supply of the same, or of equally desirable species, is going to waste about us? There are many persons in our State who would be glad to eat our native mushrooms were it not for fear of poisoning. That this fear is well founded is shown by the fact that many cases of severe illness and even loss of life are annually recorded through carelessness in the indis criminate eating of fungi. Moreover the prevailing ignorance and superstition regarding these plants have added to the uncertainty which seemed to attend their use as food. And while this fear has often served a useful purpose in restrain ing many persons from carelessness in the eating of mushrooms, it has also prevented them from making use of a highly esteemed natural food product, obtainable often without expense other than the effort necessary to gather it.

Download or read book Studies of American Fungi Mushrooms written by George Francis Atkinson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies of American Fungi Mushrooms: Edible, Poisonous, Etc Value of Form and Characters - The different kinds of mushrooms vary in form. Some are quite strikingly different from others, so that no one would have difficulty in recognizing the difference in shape. For example, an umbrella-shaped mushroom like the one shown in Fig. I or 81 is easily distinguished from a shelving one like that in Fig. 9 or 188. But in many cases different species vary only slightly in form, so that it becomes a more or less difficult matter to distinguish them. In those plants (for the mushroom is a plant) where the different kinds are nearly alike in form, there are other characters than mere general form which enable one to tell them apart. These, it is true, require close observation on our part, as well as some experience in judging of the value of such characters the same habit of observa tion and discrimination we apply to everyday affairs and to all departments of knowledge. But so few people give their attention to the discrimination of these plants that few know the value of their characters, or can even recognize them.
