Its first and most common effect is causing [[Small Mario]] to turn into his [[Super Mario (form)|Super form]], allowing him to smash through bricks and take an extra hit from enemies. In other games, it heals [[Mario]] and others who use it. The [[Poison Mushroom]] can be considered its opposite, a mushroom item that hurts the player. Both this and the standard mushroom are designed after the poisonous ''{{wp|Amanita muscaria}}'', with the shape resembling a {{wp|Agaricus bisporus|button mushroom}}.

The idea for Super Mushrooms was originally believed to have been inspired by the cake that Alice eats in ''{{wp|Alice's Adventures in Wonderland}}'' that makes her grow after having been shrunk by a potion. However, [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] later corrected himself, saying that this was a misunderstanding; the mushrooms were actually inspired by the concept of mushrooms being associated with magical worlds in general, like the wonderland of ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'' and the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].<ref>Iwata Asks. [http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wii/nsmb/0/3 New Super Mario Bros: Volume 1.4. Letting Everyone Know It Was A Good Mushroom]. ''nintendo.com''. Retrieved December 3, 2017.</ref> Regardless, the item has become one of the most iconic items in video game history, and it is almost as known as [[Mario]] himself.
