I watched it for about 15 minutes, got bored and turned it off. sorry, but it's not for me.
Using the same logic. Is it vegetable? No. Is it mineral? No.
Must be animal.
Get a dictionary and look up "Vegetable" - or look at the previous post with the dictionary definition.... then look at the definition of Fungus or Mushroom ( clue - it inclues the words "a plant") t'aint no animal... and I question your logic...
Many fungi are superficially plant-like organisms. They grow visible structures that resemble plants or plant parts. On a microscopic level, plants and fungi both have cell walls, a feature that metazoan (animal) cells lack. The study of cladistics, however, results in a phylogeny tree in which fungi are more closely related to animals than to plants. In other words, animals have a more recent common ancestor with fungi than with plants, and the mushrooms in your salad are more closely related to you than to the lettuce.
Non-sense - I had a great aunt called "Lettice" - I am therefor closer to her than a Toadstool!
If a Fungus has plant type cells then to me (and the dictionary) it IS a plant... t'aint no animal! Who heard of an animal will sporing gills!
You can get websites saying anything these days, from Elvis being alive on Mars to the Earth being hollow and full of sentient beings!
Tosh I tells you!
HillBill, nothing wrong with what you posted mate, I'm far from impressed at some of the other posts though, in the rules it says not to slander people etc and some of the wording in posts on here really tempts me to start carding and banning, i've only skimmed through the thread but Thoaken, you for instance are way more offensive than Bear Grylls
This is just not needed or wanted on bsuhcraft uk. Yours was the first post i read that ticked me off but there are others from other people that tick me off as well.
All of you, if you are not interested in Bear Grylls, Ray Mears or anyone else and have nothing of value to contribute then don't post in the thread, stop ruining it for those that do enjoy these people and would like to talk about their programmes etc
A bit of humour is fine, but a serious tirade or slagging off isn't and I'm getting sick of it, people talk about bcuk as a place of intolerance and it's because of post like those found here, you reflect badly on bcuk and I don't like it and I will boot people off the site for it.
:aargh4:
OK - mushroom then?

So what do mushrooms breath? Or any other fungi for that matter; oxygen (like animals) or carbon dioxide (like plants)?
No need to apologise. It's what you like or don't like. Each to there own (as long as you don't like The only way is Essex, Made in Chelsea, etc )

According to the internet shrooms need water, decaying matter and oxygen to thrive. Their cell walls are made of chitin (like insects) not cellulose (like plants). There is no chlorophyll either.
Again the internet reiterates that they are neither plants nor animals they are fungi. However if you really must pigeonhole (and we must) then they are closer to animals than plants.
Tony, I think you're dodging the really really really really important issue here.
The one we all need to know. Which do you prefer?...
... Sprouts or parsnips ?
He he, I think i'll go with parsnips, roasted preferably.....
