BoingBoing reader Michael says, "Looks like they found the world's largest mushroom in Switzerland, according to the BBC — 'Found in the Malheur national forest in Oregon, that fungus covers 890 hectares (2,200 acres) – making it the largest living organism ever discovered.' Anybody else want a Mushroom Omlette?" Link
Correction BoingBoing reader Charles says, "I don't think swiss scientists discovered a huge mushroom in the US (Oregon) :) The story excerpt to which Michael points appears to have been a reference point for the largest mushroom in EUROPE, which the swiss discovered (86 acres). Still a honkin' piece of stir fry!"
