Fungal source foods Food Consumption area(s): Earth Introduction Fungal source foods represent the visible sporocarp (fruiting bodies) formed by selected fungal species that have been reliably distinguished and safely processed. Their classification as suitable for eating depends largely on acceptable flavour, digestibility, and the lack of toxic secondary compounds. These organisms are appreciated for both
