      Only if you try hard enough. I mean, you gotta make a lot of poor choices all at once.

      Typically, mushrooms pass relatively well, especially if you chew them well. “Chewing well” is not one of my strongest skills, especially while eating soup. Since mushrooms contain a lot of chitin, not chewing them well before swallowing gives you a bunch of indigestible chunks that your body just kinda fast-tracks.

      Also, as someone with GERD and IBS who frequently makes poor dietary choices, I cook my hot and sour soup with ingredients that are extra-exciting. Such as enough white chili powder to get me sweating.

      While confirming my understanding of how I turn myself into a fungi fire hose, I learned about FODMAP and the must likely reason why I’ve been crazy gassy in these weeks when I’ve made hot and sour soup most days of the week. Sometimes multiple times a day. I’m eating some right now…
