kombucha is not a mushroom

[Guest guest]

Greetings,

I, too, dislike people calling the kombucha a

" mushroom " .

The definition of a mushroom is - " A fleshy, umbrella

shaped fungus, often edible " . Musrooms also produce

spores, which are somewhat like seeds.

As we all know kombucha does not fall into this

definition. Kombucha is a culture of yeasts and

bacteria. Some yeast produce spores but never

mushrooms. Mushrooms are the fruit of fungus, the

kombucha SCOBY(what people call the " mushroom " is

basically a big yeast patty.

Peace,
