RE: Suesa's Science Challenge #2

in #science7 years ago

I totally forgot this part of the entry process.

So, of course I made an entry that is mushroom centric. In the US there are three mushrooms that rule like 90% of the market - The white button mushroom - the Cremini or Crimini mushroom - and the Portobello.

The only thing is -They're all the same species of mushroom!

When I tell my friends and family this it usually blows their minds because everyone thinks they're three different species and they look very different. But no - a widespread misconception if there ever was one!
