I agree with you, Trish. I love Quorn products and wish

they would sell ALL of the different variety of items

in the stores here in the USA. I have no problem eating

them and the thought of it being fungus does not put

me off in the slightest. I think it is rather wonderful

that a veg food so full of protein is being grown and

made from a fungus source. Of course I love mushrooms;

all except shiitake mushrooms, that are a bit too strong

and rubbery for my palate. I like the flavor they impart

to dishes, but I always pick them out and push them to

the side of the plate.
