Mushroom safety
Only eat store-bought mushrooms
The only mushrooms you can be sure are safe are those sold at trusted retailers.
Never pick mushrooms growing outside
Some mushrooms that grow outside may look similar to store-bought ones, but they could be poisonous! Don’t eat wild mushrooms.
Look for the Australian Grown label
Australian mushroom growers follow world-leading food safety standards and strict traceability.
Australian mushrooms are grown in clean, controlled environments
Commercial mushrooms are produced indoors in climate-controlled rooms, using pasteurised compost.
