raw mushrooms are just meh, but if that's what floats your goat, then go for it

I used to munch on them raw during my prep cook days when I was doing like 100 pounds of the fuckers at a time. Not bad but compared to sauteeing them in butter and flambeeing with cognac, pretty bland.

Yea, in French. OP is talking specifically about Agaricus bisporus, aka "champignon mushroom." It's not a mistake, it's just how people call them, smartass.

In maturity when allowed to grow to a large size, a brown mushroom is called a portobello. The French name is champignon de Paris ("Paris mushroom").
t. wikipedia
if anything, you should call them paris mushrooms if you're a frenchaboo, else you have a word in your language instead of using stupid barbarisms

They're perfectly fine raw. Just make sure to peel/wash them before because they're litterally grown in horse shit.

Sure, they can be eaten raw. But, all mushrooms are healthier when eaten cooked. Nutritionally-wise, mushrooms are better eaten cooked because it breaks down their thick cellular walls and makes their amino acids and other nutrients more available for your absorption. Raw, your digestive system will take too long to break them down, and you'll lose those nutrients. Also, champignons have a very mild toxicity (not enough to hurt you) and heat breaks the toxicity down.
