      Amanita Muscaria is the variety you seek. I believe it's endemic to siberia. It's also poisonous, so probably not a great idea to eat them. If you wanna feel 10 feet tall, you're probably better off just wearing somebody else's glasses.

      The JR Staff was so kind and helpful. They spoke English too - a big change from 20 years ago when I first came here. HAHA! When I see the CEO again, I will mention it - I'd like to try more mushrooms there. He gave us some soup to take home which Kanae loved!

She would go to the mountains near Fujiwara in the fall and pick mushrooms with her friend who ran Minakami onsen. Thank you so much for your episodes!

    So glad you’ve continued it. I know food videos always do well, but it’s super important that we understand we everything comes from. I didn’t know there were so many varieties of mushrooms either in Japan, no wonder they’re so relevant in some of the video games lol. I really love portabella mushrooms as slices on top of a burger or stuffed and baked on an oven. They’re a bit expensive though! I’m so excited to see more food and farm stuff!
