• We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with Paula Mee to highlight to our consumers how nutritionally beneficial mushrooms are and the ways in which they can be incorporated into everyday meals.” 
• Paula Mee, Consultant Dietician said “It is often said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and mushrooms make the perfect ingredient, as they are not only filling and flavoursome but extremely versatile. As well as being low in fat and calories, mushrooms also have a whole host of health benefits, with roughly four mushrooms (80g) counting as one of your 5 a day fruit and vegetable portions. Mushrooms are a natural source of folic acid and of vitamin B₅, which helps reduce tiredness and fatigue. A wonderful way to start the day!”
