Nope. Don't like the taste or texture. Breading doesn't hide it from me either.
It tastes right or wrong. For me it's wrong.
I guess it's like REAL scallops to some. The tartness when broiled with butter is what makes them good. If you've got no tartness you've been suckered with fake scallops.
A cheating bar tender can't get away with substituting original Tanqueray with just any gin either.

@Gibbon I can understand that. I only like it extremely thin or grilled well. But I know not everyone likes it.

@MellyMel22 You know I had one meal that was my first exposure to portobello mushrooms and really like it. I haven't a good one since and avoid them completely.

@Gibbon That’s another thing where I feel the way it’s prepared can make the meal or break the meal! I once got a Portobello burrito from a Mexican place and it was horrible because of how the mushrooms were cooked. Other times I had the same exact burrito and it was great, but it made me hesitant to want to get it again.

@MellyMel22 The good meal the portobello was a big ole dude on the plate like a steak with all the sides. I have no idea how it was cooked. I ordered it similar at another place a couple yesrs after. Rubberized awefulnes. I tried it with some meal which everything was breaded and fried. That was the end.same aweful texture. I quit . There's more to it than just how it's cooked. Same with leg of lamb. You'll never get the greasy past me. Says the bacon lover.

@Gibbon Maybe it’s the high heat like frying it that makes it rubbery 🤔 I’m not sure. Overcooked will def do it though I think.
I’m not a meat eater, but I’ve heard others say similar about lamb.

@MellyMel22 Whatever it is portobellos have been relegated to the poisonous mushroom column for me.
