Dried Shroom



A Dried Shroom is an item in the Paper Mario series. In Paper Mario, Dried Shrooms are only sold in Dry Dry Outpost and Rip Cheato. Although they heal only 1 HP, Dried Shrooms are required to be bought to visit Moustafa. Black Li'l Oinks leave them behind.

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Dried Shrooms are sold at Westside Goods in Rogueport for two Coins. Any mushroom becomes a Dried Shroom when cooked with a Mr. Softener. Mario has to buy a Dried Shroom and a Dizzy Dial to gain access to Don Pianta.

After Mario defeats the Shadow Queen in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, a mysterious treasure chest is found by Professor Frankly. If Mario chooses to come back to Rougeport after beating the game, the professor will find that it contained a measly Dried Shroom, which he, however, viewed as a precious scientific relic as it proved that ancient societies ate mushrooms.

Trivia

 * Since it sells so poorly, Mario should only use it for cooking.
 * Petuni gives a Dried Shroom to Punio in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. This is the first time that someone else other than the player is giving and recieving an item in the game.
