Laetiporus is a genus of edible mushrooms found throughout much of the world. Some species, especially Laetiporus sulphureus, are commonly known as sulphur shelf, chicken of the woods, the chicken mushroom, or the chicken fungus because it is often described as tasting like and having a texture similar to that of chicken meat.
Due to its taste, Laetiporus sulphureus has been called the chicken polypore and chicken-of-the-woods [12] (not to be confused with Grifola frondosa, the so-called hen-of-the-woods). Many people think that the mushroom tastes like crab or lobster leading to the nickname lobster-of-the-woods .
