The boom in plant based diets is having a discernible effect on the exotic mushrooms industry.
Sales of oyster mushrooms have been going through the roof apparently.
UK based Smithy Mushrooms have never seen demand like it.
Smithy Mushrooms supplies Tesco, the UK’s largest supermarket and they say sales of brown oyster and king oyster mushrooms have rocketed nearly 240 per cent.
Marks & Spencer and Waitrose also report that sales of mushrooms in every category are up.
