Headline: UK Mushroom Sets New Bitter Benchmark

Caption: Scientists have identified the most bitter-tasting substance ever—found in a mushroom growing in the UK and Ireland. The mushroom, called bitter bracket or Postia stiptica, contains compounds more bitter than anything previously recorded. Researchers at Germany's Leibniz Institute extracted and analyzed these compounds to better understand how we perceive bitterness.
