It’s in mushrooms, which often come dusted with an extra dusting of the brown goodness you speak of

@girlwithsmiles Interesting, so mushroom growers get a double income, one for the plant and one for the B-12 bloom.

The B12 is in the mushrooms too, but the soul is often on them too isn’t it. I don’t like it’s crunch and prefer to just eat the mushrooms myself

@girlwithsmiles It would be interesting to see how it is grown and processed.

@JackPedigo In the uk mushrooms tend to be grown in big tunnels. After a while they sell the compost used to the public, my mother brought some, and mushrooms just stared coming up, it was great.
My brother worked in a mushroom farm for a while, the tunnels are kept dark for the most part I believe.

@girlwithsmiles Mushrooms are very interesting. This time of year they are all over the ground here. Different shapes, colors and sizes. A neighbor has them all along her long driveway and she feels guilty when she drives over them.

@JackPedigo Owh, that would be a tough one, yes I try my hardest not to damage them too. There’s a big brown one on my way to work that’s been there for at least a week, rain and shine.

@girlwithsmiles There is a large group in the area known as the Mountaineers. It is the 2nd largest outdoor/environmental group in the US after the Sierra Club. I went on 2 weekend trips with them (they have 5 rustic ski lodges in the mountains) on mushrooms. A lot of people attended including a group from the local mycological club. The number, colors, sizes and shapes of mushrooms collected was amazing. We made a meal from some of the edibles and someone brought out some cloth swatches with colors gotten from the mushrooms. Since those trips I notice and appreciate mushrooms a lot more.

@JackPedigo sounds fab, my friend Jenny was so passionate about them I got the bug too.

I’m allergic to eggs and dairy and don’t eat much meat. I’m in full support of the vegan revolution, my diet is much more varied now.
