You’re 100% right. For the record these mushrooms were cultivated; not wild, but also from China which introduces its own concerns.
How? You can't cultivate morels.
I thought the same until I recently learned otherwise:
Cultivating Coveted Morels Year-Round and Indoors
Jacob and Karsten Kirk, twins from Copenhagen, say they have devised a method to reliably grow morel mushrooms in a climate-controlled environment.
Good point. However the issue is a less developed food culture around these mushrooms than their mode of production/harvest. So I think the same logic applies here.
