Mushrooms

Polly ate some mushrooms today. She liked it, but then she was concerned that mushrooms would be similar to vegetables and that she would be inclined to being part herbivore. She rightfully believes herself to be a dog, thus a carnivore. This is true, we are carnivores, even though the occasional grass straw may go down on us as on wolves to help our digestion. I told Polly that according to recent scientific research, mushrooms are actually closer related to animals than to vegetables. She should not be concerned about not being a carnivore. We are on top of the food chain, this is something we are justified in being proud of.
