I very distinctly remember my first morel. I was 7 or 8 years old. I probably wouldn't have remembered that night at dad's friend's northern Wisconsin home, BUT for the morels. {I taste the morel. My focus is quickly zoomed in and the table grows longer, more distended and eventually totally obscured; until, it's only me and the taste and texture of that wonderful new mushroom!) Sounds dramatic? It impacted me for life! Think of you're singular food experiences! I have 2 others: tasting real, homemade, genuine mayonaisse in Paris; and, sucking on spiny lobster fresh off the beach in a no-road-in rinky-dink "village" in Mexico. To each their own, hey?

The kind I saw were supposedly worth a lot and also easy to find. <blockquote>Ratty, Very likely these are the TV mushrooms you saw. High demand by fungus eaters drives up the price since all attempts to grow them commercially have failed.</blockquote> I think these are the ones I saw on TV once where people here in Michigan hunt for them to make money.

Ratty,
Very likely these are the TV mushrooms you saw. High demand by fungus eaters drives up the price since all attempts to grow them commercially have failed.
