to keep someone uninformed and tell them lies about something (Mushrooms commonly grow in dark environments and feed on manure, so the phrase puns on the idea of being kept in the dark (left uninformed) and fed bullshit (lies): Does your boss tell you the truth about anything that's going on? When I worked there, they treated me like a mushroom—that's why I left!  thefreedictionary.com) | |||
