Raw mushrooms are a dietary source of vitamin D, which is pretty rare. My stomach doesn't always approve of them, though. I do eat raw mushrooms occasionally, usually marinated, and not in large quantities. I generally limit myself to the less challenging varieties: white buttons, crimini, and occasionally baby bella or portabella. I got a bad stomach ache off of raw shitake a couple months ago, and though it probably wouldn't happen again I'm not ready to give them another chance yet.

One thing to note about mushrooms is that they pull a lot of toxins up out of the soil (or other growing medium). This makes them excellent for cleansing soil that might have chemicals in it, but generally bad for eating unless they grew in a fairly clean environment. I would recommend buying only organic mushrooms.
