Mushrooms (regular ones!)

spider from mars

This may sound like a crazy question, but do mushrooms count as part of your 5 a day fruit and veg thing?

Scroll to see replies

I don't see why not. They're not vegetables in theory but I like to think they are.

:hmmmm:

They're not really vegetables though are they? Mushrooms are fungi, so probably don't count.
Verdict: I'd say they don't

I would just say yes, I don’t think your body actually can tell the difference or even count up your 5 a day so I think its safe the fool it this time and get away with it :biggrin:

:biggrin:

depends on how there cooked. i think if they're fried probably not

Okay so we need a poll.

I don't know about counting towards your five a day but I do know that by writing 'regular ones' you cut the number of people that will open this thread drastically :P

I doubt I've ever had a 'pie' in my life. :biggrin:

:biggrin:

Not even sure what a pie looks like if you don't mean cake.
And I imagine they can taste quite well on burgers actually so go you!

The NHS website certainly classes mushrooms as vegetables... :rolleyes:

:rolleyes:

but probably only in the nutritional sense

If in doubt just eat one more portion. Problem solved :smile:
