They are a good diet food because you can eat all the raw
mushrooms you want and get almost no nutrition in them.
There is some potassium in them, a minimal amount of
Vitamin C and B6, a trace of Magnesium and calcium. The
need some sort of fat to cook them in and you probably get
more nutrition from that than the mushrooms themselves.
Hell, you would probably glean more tradition from the shit
they use to grow the  mushrooms.

 
 
AND! What's that taste that Cindy made me look up? I'm going
to look it up again. "Terrior" ain't it. "Umami" ain't it.
Petrichor? Geosim?  Take over for me, Cindy. I'm getting old,
quick. :(

 
 
The curious thing about mushrooms is that as nutritionally
vacant as  they are, they can act as a substitute for meat.
That's what I use on my  vegetarian pizza.

 
I've heard over the years some people grill large portobello
mushroom caps in place of hamburgers.

The Vegan/Vegetarian guys local to me have done that at backyard
cookouts.  Quite good!

 
I'm thrilled you like them.  The last thing I'm interested in is
backyard cookouts with Vegan/Vegetarians.
