"The difference between animals and fungi is simple: animals put food in their bodies, whereas fungi put their bodies in the food."
—Merlin Sheldrake, Entangled Life

To promote the book (and have some fun at the same time), Sheldrake fed a copy to some oyster mushrooms https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chOsO7XhLB8 and then ate the mushrooms that grew from his book https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJfDaIVl-tE
(Most of the sounds in the timelapse video were made by mushrooms; see the alt text or click through for details.)
