Yes, you can. Just buy packaged ones from a trusted supermarket, wash them properly, and cook them completely. Never eat them raw or wild.

Oh absolutely! Mushroom matar masala was my absolute favorite craving during my second trimester. Just make sure the restaurant cooks them well, or better yet, make it at home.

Haan bilkul kha sakte ho, koi problem nahi hai. Bas acche se dho lena aur kacha mat khana, na? Well-cooked mushrooms are totally safe.

Regular button mushrooms that you get in packs are fine. Clean them with dry flour or warm water to remove the black dirt, cook them thoroughly with your regular spices, and eat.

Don't stress too much about it, dear! Mushrooms are actually full of vitamin D which is great for you now. Just make sure they are super fresh and nicely cooked.

Dekho, packaged button mushroom khao toh koi dikkat nahi hai. Bas bahaar ke unhygienic stalls se mushroom rolling ya fast food avoid karna is time pe.
