rare Mushrooms are OP!
The rare Mushroom is OP and here is a list of reasons.
1. They never spoil
2. They restore 25 food points. (five more than cooked meat. Cooked meat is 20 and rare mushrooms are 25)
3. They stack to 100 and weight is 0.01

That being said I can farm a thousand of them in a few minutes with a good Mammoth at the swamp.
They of course are balanced out by:
1. Swamp Biome only and the mountains rarely.
2. Need dinos to harvest them.

If you live near the swamp take advantage of these shrooms!!!!

Acually I got one in the mountains, when mining crystal. And the cooked meat gives 20 food points, not 5.

Thousand in a few minutes? One should not claim "OP" when playing wth easy-mode gather rates.

I'll agree that they are not so "rare" when you get a mammoth, but even on my 5x server it takes a fair bit to gather 1k.

re-read the OP. 5 more than 20 is what? 25.. not 5 ... and yes you can get them in the mountains, they are more abundant in the swamp though.

Doubt it

Must be reserved for future update? Has to be the only reason they haven't nerfed it already, because like op says, thats pretty op lol
