In the market, for the price of authentic wild red mushrooms, the wholesale price ranges from 500 yuan to 600 yuan per catty, and the retail price usually fluctuates around 700 yuan. It is worth noting that if you encounter an unusually low price, such as 300 to 400 yuan for wild red mushrooms, you need to be vigilant when purchasing because there may be counterfeit products. A tip for identifying wild red mushrooms is that after soaking them in water, real wild red mushrooms will fade, but the dissipation of color is not uniform, but gradually turns into an elegant rose red, and this process is relatively slow. Therefore, when purchasing, you should not only pay attention to the price, but also carefully observe its color changes to ensure that you are buying real wild red mushrooms.
