okay im doing a paper for school and i have to have a certain amount of health benefits and i cant find any at all can some1 help me please!!!???
I only purchase locally grown fresh mushrooms
The fresh one's are so much better tasting and better for you.
I will never buy an imported canned variety from Asia,or any other food products for that matter.
Our agricultural practices and food testing is the best in the world and we need to source Canadian food products as much as possible to ensure our high standards are continued to be met.
Mushrooms concentrate heavy metals so be cautious about where they come from and quantities consumed.
