after I got my own apartment, I started experimenting why that is.

I am. But when I -feel- that mushroom (or tendon) texture on my tongue, or even from biting down on it, sometimes before the movement is complete or right after my brain goes in full EJECT mode.
I've managed to pick out 2 by 2 mm pieces from a mouthfull of whatever it was that had shredded mushrooms in it.
I really try, most cheeses had the same effect, but I'm trying some here and there and find I now actually enjoy certain types. But mushrooms, nope.

guys, let me know what you think of this:

My idea for a restaurant would be a kind of pub in the Pacific Northwest that had a good rotating selection of craft beers (and some staples), and the food was basically just preparations of seasonal mushrooms.

Poutine with Morel gravy, shitake and soba noodles, chantrelle soup, porcini ragout, grilled oysters and grilled oyster mushrooms in a butter sauce, beef medallions in duxelle, etc etc etc.

Inside would be comfy as fuck, old man by the sea kind of stuff.
