so Mushroom grown from paper waste are not edible?

That's a good question. I expect it depends on the paper waste. I haven't seen studies on it, but mushrooms will take up heavy metals, so certainly it's possible that they have toxins in them if the paper was exposed to any. I would love to see a food chemistry lab actually test some samples. In the meantime, we don't eat anything we're not sure of!
