Answers:
Edible mushrooms are used extensively in cooking, in many cuisines (notably Chinese, European and Japanese). Though commonly thought to contain little nutritional value, many varieties of mushrooms are high in fiber and protein, and provide vitamins such as thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), biotin (B7), cobalamins (B12) and ascorbic acid (C), as well as minerals, including iron, selenium, potassium and phosphorus.

Dont eat a Toads tool.
Not very many nutrients I'm afraid. They're more of a food 'additive'.

When I was a kid I didn't like the texture of mushrooms, but since then my tastes have matured. I love love love mushrooms now, especially sauteed mmmmmm.
They are really good for you and dieting.

A serving of 4-5 mushrooms provides a mere 20 calories and zero grams of fat, yet it is also a good source of numerous nutrients including several b vitamins, copper and selenium. In addition, mushrooms are an under-recognized source of potassium, a nutrient many people do not get enough of.
Actually, mushrooms aren't vegetables.
They aren't animals either, but they have their own "kingdom".
So can vegetarians eat them - they are definitely not vegetables nor are they fruits.
