The Food Institute shared Mushroom Varieties Captivating Consumers highlighting the popularity of mushrooms among trend forecasters, retailers, and foodservice operators. Additionally, the article calls out the Mushroom Council’s new initiative, Mushroom Monday. “Mushrooms’ versatility across meal occasions, as well as cuisines, means that both food operators and retailers have some great flexibility to be creative.”

The Packer shared, “It’s a magnificent time for mushrooms in grocery,” in a recent article, Fresh Mushroom Trends Afoot. “Retail is also seeing an uptick [in mushroom sales], as consumers are more willing to try new varieties at home and are drawn to the health benefits and ease of preparation,”

Similarly, And Now U Know and Blue Book Services highlighted a recent press release from the Mushroom Council, Forecasters Agree: Mushrooms Trending in 2024.
