Mellow Mushroom, the unique, trippy pizza brand with over 170 stores, is leaning into National Mushroom Day, which takes place October 15.

“From truffle-infused pizzas to ‘shroom-centric calzones and hoagies,” the press release said. “The menu is a treasure trove for mushroom fanatics everywhere.”
