OK, so how many pounds of MUSHROOMS do you eat in a year?

[Papa Deuce]

And how many pounds do you think the average American eats in a year.... I will post that answer later in the thread.

I will say that I probably eat 8 - 10 pounds a year.

Zilch!
They rank up there with onions for me. I will pick them out but at least I can live with the flavor they leave behind.

Background: As a kid my mothers favorite food was steamed onions w/ steamed mushrooms it makes me gag just thinking of all those hours I sat staring at those horrid things!

 

[lillygator]

hmm...I love mushrooms as much as onions....so LOTS here....

In college I used to sautee up mushrooms and onions and throw them in a tortilla with A1~

YUM!

 

[DISUNC]

What "kind" of mushrooms?

LOL... I'm having mushrooms and onions for dinner... ONLY mushrooms and onions!

BTW, the answer is 6 pounds a year for the average American.

That was my first thought, too.

I am not a mushroom lover... I will eat them in certain foods, but can live without them, so I don't consume many at all. I would say that our household probably consumes less than the average for one person.

 

[SwedishMeatball]

That was my first thought, too.

There's a big shock.

 

[momrek06]

Sorry, PAPA, count me as ZERO!! Not liking the mushrooms at all!!!

 

[Tigger&Belle]

There's a big shock.

Yeah, really!

 

[FlowersChild]

Well I don't know how many pounds of Mushrooms that I eat in a year, but I just love Mushrooms, so I know that I eat a lot of Mushrooms in a year Hobbits also like Mushrooms so this is another reason as to why I am like a Hobbit

 

[teacups]

NONE. I have horses... let's just say I get to see where they come from.



Kinda ruins it.

 

[shortbun]

A lot, we eat loads of mushrooms. Portobellos on the grill, sauted in the pan, raw in salads, in lasagna as a meat sub, in soups, in Chinese and on and on.

 

[Liberty Belle]

I'd guess I eat maybe a quarter of a pound. I don't like mushrooms and I don't put them in anything I make, but every once in a while they'll be in something I eat that someone else has made.

 

[sPaRkLeSpAz]

Ewwwwwwww . Probably less than one pound. Ickness, I hate mushrooms.

 

[HSMndLKfan92]

Less than a pound.

I hate them, but they probably end up in my food, anyway.

 

[Magickndm]

Not a single ounce. I hate them.
Biting into a mushroom feels like biting into a nose. No, I've never actually bitten into a nose, but my aunt told me this once and it stuck.
