No, of course not. But the price gave me a bit of sticker shock. I've never
bought them before so I had no idea they were that pricey.

A couple of ounces looks like 4 or 5 mushrooms. If I had a recipe in mind
that called for a few ounces I might have relented and got past it. Had they
been a lot cheaper, I might have splurged and bought some just to experiment
with.
