fungi to be with

The Independent are currently running a campaign highlighting the absurd quantity of packaging put on the most basic of items of food by the major supermarkets, including Tesco and Asda. Well, I went to Somerfield on the way home from work this evening, and I have a packaging-related gripe as well. Take a look at these mushrooms. Nice tasty open-cup chestnut mushrooms, but, hang on, take a closer look at the packaging.....yes, apparently they're "ideal for cooking". Well, that's nice then. As opposed to sticking up your arse or whittling into the shape of a flugelhorn, I suppose. Do we really need to be told this? Maybe we do.....
