Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Inspiring, I'd like to see a better guide.

And where are the mushrooms?

Mushrooms are effectively plants when talking about food.

We don't ever say the food groups are "fruits, vegetables, and fungus."

I don't know fungus sounds tasty to me. It is not planted based nor is meat with herbs.

Thems the breaks when you're raised in myco-phobic cultures.

Fungus are closer to us than plants, genetically.

Science knows next to nothing about the extents of fungal connections & interactions (compared to acquired knowledge of plant & animal biology).

Agriculture is wallowing in the dark ages, denying myco-culture wherever possible.

Things are starting to turn around. Some colleges and universities actually have mycology departments now, though many current mycologists had to declare their major as 'biology' to arrive there.
