Can someone eli5 who she is and what the go with the mushrooms is? I vaguely remember seeing an article about it when it happened but it didn't seem that important to me. But everyone is going wild over it, so now I'm wondering what I've missed?
A lady named Erin Patterson had some people over for lunch and she cooked them a beef Wellington (kind of like a large sausage roll) that had mushrooms in it. 3 out of 4 guests died due to death cap mushrooms. She has been arrested today.
Oh, right. I was expecting something more interesting with how much hubbub was happening
Basically bad mushies. There are good bad mushies but these were not the good bad mushies.
