People have had intimate associations with fungi for millennia. But most of us are unaware of how heavily we rely on fungi in the form of countless everyday products that use them and the chemicals they produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFungi have a long history of association with death, decay, and dark forces.
