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.
