On Thursday, Montana health officials published an outbreak analysis of poisonings linked to the honeycombed fungi in March and April of last year. The outbreak sickened 51 people who ate at the same restaurant, sending four to the emergency department. Three were hospitalized and two died. Though the health officials didn’t name the restaurant in their report, state and local health departments at the time identified it as Dave’s Sushi in Bozeman. The report is published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

I love grilled stuffed portobello mushrooms. I don’t think I’ll be eating raw mushrooms again. Overall I don’t understand people’s fascination with eating raw food anymore, it just doesn’t seem like it’s worth the risk for the benefit. I used to love sashimi and I used to eat sushi consistently, now I just don’t really care for it and it’s too expensive.

Yeah, that’s a major point. I was like, “oh fuck, Montana?!” I know there are lookalikes in Europe, but never heard of anyone wild harvesting around here getting poisoned.

We always soaked them in salt water over night before we fried them up.
