Fresh mushrooms are absolute powerhouses in the fight against cancer! And not only are they good for you to eat, you’re doing good just by buying the pink punnets at Pick ‘n Pay stores this October. You see, R1 from each pink punnet of 250g whole and sliced white button mushrooms will be donated to the Ditto prostheses project so that breast prostheses can be provided to affected women who cannot afford to purchase them! So buy lots of mushrooms and use them up making Mushroom Ceviche https://bit.ly/2gxMin8! #pinkpunnet #fruitandveg #breastcancer #minimizerisk #mushroomseveryday
