Hi! has anyone had difficulty with mushrooms while being banded? If so how are you able to tolerate them?

Any advice is much appreciated

I'm still able to eat them but I'm very careful to chew thoroughly since my last fill. It doesn't take much to push me from OK to STUCK and a hunk of rubbery mushroom cap could definitely do it.

Hi there, they are a little rubbery for me. I reckon they are all about how they are cooked.

Raw mushrooms are easier to eat. Not as rubbery. I always put some in my salad.

It was a couple years postOp for me before I was ready to try 'em again.

Raw is absolutely no trouble and a real delight; cooked is important to avoid 'rubberizing' them and cut into SMALL pieces.

Let's pretend 'a friend' showed me how important CHEWING THOROUGHLY is to avoid unpleasantness....
