I concur. I marinate mushrooms in olive oil, vinegar, and diced
garlic. I do not simmer them and do not use lemon juice. I stir
them from time to time, and before serving them I fish out all the
pieces of garlic. Never had any complaints, nor do they turn any
sort of wrong color.
Somebody mentioned bottled dressing. Who knows what the might do
to them. I'd avoid it.
