    So… You just want more than 1 option at the store?

    White button, baby bella/cremini, and portabello mushrooms are all the same mushroom, just at different maturity.

      Yes, but they taste different. If I’m at a store that only offers fresh shiitake and dried shiitake, that’s still two different types of mushroom they have on offer.
