US Treasury Secretary Yellen ate mushrooms in China that cause hallucinations
According to the TV channel, after landing at the Beijing airport, the US Treasury Secretary went with her team to a Yunnan cuisine restaurant, where, among other dishes, she ordered four servings of wild mushrooms of the Lanmaoa asiatica variety. This information was confirmed to the TV channel by the assistant to the head of the US Treasury, adding that Yellen was satisfied with the restaurant's cuisine.
As Peter Mortimer, a professor at the Kunming Institute of Botany in Yunnan Province, told the TV channel, Lanmaoa mushrooms are a local variety, they grow in Yunnan Province and are considered poisonous, as they can cause hallucinations in those who decide to eat them. At the same time, the expert noted that scientists have so far failed to identify and isolate the component in the composition of the mushroom that causes hallucinations.
At the same time, in China, Lanmaoa asiatica mushrooms are a delicacy and it is believed that they will not cause any side effects if cooked correctly. In the restaurant where Yellen ordered mushrooms, they assured that all the dishes from them were prepared qualitatively and professionally, in full accordance with the tested recipe.
Earlier, IA Regnum reported that the US criticized Finance Minister Yellen for violating diplomatic etiquette at a meeting with Vice Premier of the State Council of China He Lifeng. The head of the US Treasury bowed briskly and often during a handshake with the Chinese representative. At the same time, Lifen did not reciprocate Yellen.
The head of the US Treasury Department was in China on an official visit on July 6-9. Earlier, she said that Chinese organizations should not help Russia in circumventing sanctions and provide material support.
