mushrooms are neither fruit nor vegetables They are a special type of fungus
source :http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/health-fitness/healthy-eating/are-mushrooms-good-you?page=all
but are they allowed to be eaten (halal)?
is there any fatwa/hadith related specifically with mushrooms ?
both Shia and Sunni views are welcome
note: i know everything which is not haram is by default allowed and also know that it is permitted to eat food containing microbes/bacteria(pro biotic like curd )
