I’d like to think the mushroom protects the toad with a toxin, giving them a symbiotic relationship.
neither are plants 🤔
Mushrooms are vegetables
Vegetables are part of a plant
Thus mushrooms are plant
Also I typed plant in the emoji search and got a mushroom 🍄
but mushrooms are not vegetables 🤷
You’re being logical, when nothing makes sense in English😛
This would fall under a more culinary vegetable label. Which is how most people interact with mushrooms.
Don’t believe me? Ask Harvard

Your quote says not a plant.
But it does say it is a vegetable, and a vegetable is part of a plant.
It’s like strawberries, they’re technically nuts but we call them fruit.
That’s syllogism.
Just because it is considered a vegetable in culinary terms, doesn’t make it a plant in biological classification.
Right, and just because it’s a fungi in biological classification doesn’t make it one in culinary terms.
Now I don’t know about your side of the world, here where I am 99% of people are not scientists. We use categories that we interact with daily, which is why mushroom is a plant rather than a niche definition.
