The Super Mushroom is a very common power-up (could be the most common power-up) from the Mario series of video games. Traditionally, it is about the size of "regular" Mario, and has a white stalk below a red and white (originally red and orange) spotted cap. Originally, it was shaped after a common mushroom, but since in Super Mario Bros. 2, it gained a more cartoonish shape, with an almost-spheric cap and a stubby stalk. It has two eyes like most other power-ups.
The Super Mushroom is the most basic power-up in the Mario series, and is also the most popular and most seen items. Winning three consecutive Mushroom cards from the slot-machine goal boxes at the end of each level in Super Mario Bros. 3 will earn the player two extra lives, whereas winning three consecutive Fire Flower cards earns three extra lives, and winning three consecutive Starman cards will earn them five. In Mario Kart games, the first (and easiest) tracks belong to the Mushroom Cup.
There were awesome to get, they usually came at you right when you needed them the most if you knew where and how to obtain them, oh the memories lol. Please be very careful with the container as it is unique to the cache’s theme; replaced as found or better and watch for muggle at all time.
