Question:

On a white button mushroom, should the brown areas/spots be removed?

— Melissa Bryant

Answer:

So typically if you're getting browning mushrooms and then you're getting that weird smell that I was talking about earlier, you just wanna get rid of the mushroom. Um, and on a white button mushroom, if you have just like a little spot on it and you can remove that spot, that's totally fine on it. But if you're seeing it consistently around the entire mushroom, I would just move on to the next mushroom.
