What is this? Some dried mushrooms have too much of a natural substance. This can happen when mushrooms are dried the wrong way.

What's happening? Germany told other EU countries about this problem. The mushrooms came from China.

Does this affect me? If you bought dried mushrooms in Germany, Austria, Belgium, or other listed countries, check your package.

What should I do? Do not eat them if the package looks old or smells bad. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you feel sick.
