    The document discusses different types of mushrooms - button, field, and swiss brown mushrooms. It describes their physical characteristics. Mushrooms are grown commercially in large sheds in compost bins in Perth. Fresh mushrooms have no packaging while frozen mushrooms come packaged in plastic bags. Frozen mushrooms last longer but are more expensive than fresh. Mushrooms provide various vitamins and minerals with no salt. Mushroom farming has no environmental impact as waste is recycled into compost. Paper packaging for fresh mushrooms degrades naturally unlike plastic which can pollute.
