Mushrooms
Mushrooms are one of the kinds of edible flora in Unreal World. Though some mushrooms are edible raw (marked as "Poison: None" in the table), the majority are poisonous in some way, with varying severity. Poison effects can range from nausea, to hallucinations, to death.
Usually these poisons can be neutralised by blanching the mushrooms (using a pot and some water with the "Boil / Herbal beverages" Cookery option). The boiled mushroom thus obtained can be eaten as is or used as 'mushroom' ingredients in further cooking recipes, such as mushroom soup or meat stew. Therefore, it is always a good idea to blanch mushrooms before eating, unless you have prior experience. Important: Directly cooking recipes using raw mushrooms does not count as blanching and does NOT remove poison.
Mushrooms are mildly nutritious (when cooked) and despite the inherent risks in eating them, are a great daily food supply if you do not have a solid source of food.
