FFF 52 — fungi jerky

I happened across fungi jerky about a month ago and bought it on impulse. I’ve bought dried shiitaki mushrooms for hot and sour soup and could see them being marinated and then dried into jerky.

These little quarter-sized bits have great texture and taste and are much healthier to eat than, say, potato chips. They are kind of pricey at about $8/2 oz. bag, but not an unreasonable price, all things considered.

The only warning I give is that they can act as a laxative, so eat them in moderation.

This post is also a heads-up that I’ll be taking a blogging break starting on Sunday and until the 25th, when I’ll be hosting a dVerse prompt. Hopefully during the break I’ll get a chance to experience things that I can write about. I feel pretty tapped out right now.

  3. Wow! The mushroom jerky sounds great. Take some time off. This is my busy time of year with Unicorn Cats Publishing. There’s never a dull moment. Enjoy. ❤️

      It is tasty. Thanks, Colleen. I want to avoid all social media around the election. I’m glad your Publishing Company is staying busy. I’ll be around until Sunday.

      Thanks Max. I know I’ll be back for the 25th prompt, but at this point not sure I’ll stay back. I’m really feeling kinda burned out with all of the deadlines, etc. Too much like a job.
