It was only in 1969 (nice) that fungi officially became its own separate kingdom.
Watermelons are berries. Strawberries are not.
They are not made of straw, either.
Tomatoes are a fruit.
Fun fact: mushrooms are closer to the animal kingdom than to the plant kingdom.
Yeah but we’re not eating the whole thing we’re just eating its sex organ
Except, in cheese and some sausages. Also, I’m not sure yeast counts, because it’s usually dead by the time we eat it in our food.
not sure yeast counts because it’s usually dead
As long as the organism is dead, we’re not eating it? Time to have some steak then, surely that’s not a cow!
lol, yeah, but when baking, the yeast gets destroyed pretty bad. i didn’t dare call it yeast at that point, but maybe you’re right.
Fuck you op. Mushrooms are plants, Pluto is a planet, and that’s the truth from one edge of this flat Earth to the other.

Honestly? Flat earth? It’s not even funny as a joke. That entire movement has been so incredibly detrimental, and dangerous. It has shattered families, and been an instruction manual for other conspiracy theorists. And the worst thing of all is that it makes actual, real facts about how the earth is in, in reality, a hollow shell with a breathable atmosphere in its inferior, come across as just as crazy as flat earth. How are we supposed to spread the truth of hollow earth when flat earthers are out there making us look crazy? Just because hollow earth also points out that the government is lying about the earth doesn’t mean we’re the same! People need to know about hollow earth! Otherwise, we’ll never be able to heal the housing market by building condos inside the earth!
What’s the worst that could happen if you didn’t put in that disclaimer?
Annoying messages.

flat earthers are weird. the earth is obviously bowl shaped or the oceans would fall off. and cats would knock everything else off, thats just common sense!
That’s how we get morlocks, though
Ugh. Morlock racism crops up yet again! The morlocks did nothing wrong
I’ll be running for President next cycle on a platform based around Morlock equality. Make America Morlock Again!
You’ve got my vote! #MorlockInTheWhitehouse2028

I have family in Streator, IL, home of Clyde Tombaugh, so we’re die hard planet pluto.
Yes, I’ve encountered a few people like this. Also, no one has ever heard of Archaea.
All hail the Mushroom King!
I think OP is on mushrooms.
If Pluto is a planet, then Ceres is a planet too. CERES RIGHTS!
Remember the Cant!
Let’s just acknowledge that anything big enough to be round is a planet. That’s the bare minimum criteria.
Orbit shapes and clear paths don’t matter, the Solar system isn’t a typical stellar system, many aren’t so stable and ordered, especially in binary and triplet star systems. So the pedantry around the shapes of the orbits of the outer kuiper planets is a very silly thing to argue about. After all most orbits in binary and triplet systems aren’t even predictable long term, let alone not circular.
OK, can you name all planets in the solar system?
Sure. Jeff, Darryl, Norma, Luanne, I got lotsa names.
So that makes Earth and Moon a binary planet system. I’m cool with that
I believe the rule of thumb is binary planets’ barycentre is external to either body. This is the case with Pluto/Charon,
I think it’s also the case with Earth/Moon.That’s a good rule of thumb… but it’s probably not enough; no reasonable definition would call Jupiter a star, or even a brown dwarf, or the Solar System a binary system, yet the Sol - Jupiter barycentre is outside the sun… (the whole system’s barycentre is sometimes inside the sun, but that’s due to Saturn’s, Uranus’, and Neptune’s pulls cancelling Jupiter’s).
I’d call the barycentre thing a necessary but not sufficient requirement; a proper definition of double planet should probably also take into account other factors like the relative mass and density of the bodies, and their minimum and maximum distance.
It is not the case with the earth and the moon. It would be if the moon was 40% more massive
Yeah, I went and checked after posting.
My hunch is that if the moon was closer it would ‘drag’ the barycentre closer to the moon.
Which, given the moon is slowly receeding, means it was probably a binary early on in the formation of the solar system.
Other way around, the further apart the objects are the less likely the barycentre is to be inside one of them, you can picture it as a rubber band with a dot drawn on it, the more you stretch it the further the dot gets from both ends even if it gets further from one end faster.
Nice analogy.
TYVM!
I’ve never even considered whether they’re plants or not. I guess I always assumed they were, but now it makes sense that they’re not. But I can’t imagine anyone having a tizzy over it either way.
You can use mushrooms in Plants vs Zombies.
It isn’t called “Plants and Fungi vs Zombies.”
Ergo, mushrooms are plants.
Checkmate, atheists!
It’s not a plant or an animal, but a secret third thing.
Plants are closer to humans than the mushrooms.
You sure about that, boss? http://tolweb.org/Eukaryotes
That’s just the explanation of eukarya which lists animalia within the same super-group as fungi and plants being in a different one altogether. Any relationship with plants to humans (which are within animalia) or mushrooms could be a bit subjective.
Yes, fungi are closer to humans than plants. If you look at the reproductive cycle of all three though, plants have a closer amount of “sexes” to humans. Plants generally having “1” or 2 sexes; humans having 2. Fungi though…
Scratch that. Reverse it. And on we go
They’re
fungifun guys.Mushrooms are actually aliens
From what I’ve seen, dudes that care that much about mushrooms are really fun guys.

I overheard someone talking about veganism and said they only eat plants. I asked them about mushrooms, “of course it’s fine, those are plants”.
No amount of convincing worked.So I’ve seen it once.
If anything is close to having a consciousness and experiencing an array of emotion, including suffering. That’s a mushroom, much more than a plant.
First time hearing this but mushroom is a protein source so from diet perspective, I see it as a meet type food. Deff not vegatable
Mushrooms have some protein, but not very much. They aren’t a very good source of protein
So are chickpeas or edamame meat to you? Because they have like 5 times as much protein by weight than mushrooms.
I would go with, based totally on feelz, that no because it generally note used like that.
As you think is all super science here, trust me bro
Actual animals are far more likely to feel pain that fungi. Do fungi even have a nervous system?
We actually suspect they do. They can also display intelligent behavior, from a certain definition of the concept.
Fungi are a nervous system.
The mycelium, maybe. That is definitely not the part of the mushroom that you eat.
so hang on, mushrooms are like uh, well not milk, but as if say a cow regrew its meat every season? or maybe like a lizard that regrows its tail?
mushrooms are weird, man
wild idea, would it be possible to hijack mycelium with animal DNA and make it grow mushroom shaped meat??
Notch funds a real life Mooshroim when?
Mushrooms are plants in the culinary sense. Like strawberries, blackberries and raspberries are berries in the culinary sense.
Yup. Inside culinary classifications, fungi don’t exist. Outside of culinary classifications, vegetables don’t exist.
Culinary definition doesn’t differentiate plants, but mushrooms are vegetables.
Separate culinary definitions? That’s nuts!
But not peanuts, which are legumes.
Or the stone fruit, coconuts.
