Remember those 1 UP mushrooms found in NES's classic Super Mario game? How about planting and growing them? Believe it or not, deep in the basement of an ancient house in Sonobe (tucked in the fields of Kyoto, Japan), an amazing discovery has been made - real 1 UP Mushrooms! The instructions for growing them are pretty simple. All you do is add potting soil to the green sewer-pipe-shaped flower pot, and push the spores deep into it. Soak the soil with water using the dropper, add a squirt of the food solution, and then it's off to a dark location for a few weeks. Each packet also claims that eating the 1 UP Mushroom will grant "immortal life beyond dreams of man.", and it also has the warning: Do not put in face! I'm not sure whether the mushrooms are for real, but it sure gave me good laugh!Link & Image: ThinkGeek via Notcot
