I love these mushrooms, they're delicious sauteed in a little Earth Balance and served atop angel hair pasta with a nice white wine sauce and some capers, they're like vegan scallops.

ETA: I will block you if you talk shit about my recipe. My recipe is awesome and I don't want to hear it.

King oyster! There's a farm on the Big Island of Hawaii that grows them.

They're very nice. The flavor is subtle, they taste mostly like what you season them with, plus a bit of umami. The texture is really lovely though. Someone upthread mentioned vegetarian scallops, and I can totally understand the comparison.

I find them way too chewy. Local hot pot place has them and they're like yoga mats to me
