Mushroom Brush
A video clip of mushrooms growing on a bath scrubbing brush in Yamagata Prefecture:
An expert who examined images of the mushrooms has concluded that they are of the nameko variety. Upon finding this out, the owner of the brush decided to eat the mushrooms, but his family prevented him from doing so.
The mushrooms fell off the brush a few days after the filming of the TV segment. Apparently the old man is now revering them as a semi-holy object.
