One of my favourite foods is mushrooms, I can eat mushrooms everyday. I remember the first time I ate mushrooms they were dried mushrooms. My aunt made dried mushrooms and we ate them with sadza and I loved them instantly! Recently my mother sent me some wild mushrooms, she knows me so well. People who live in rural Zimbabwe just go into the wild and pick them, I have never done it myself but I know not to eat mushrooms that grow in an area with Eucalyptus trees because they are poisonous. I do not know the science but one of those things I picked up.
