I believe this tech is already quite established. My favorite food of this type was quorn (product name), which is sadly not available in my country anymore. You might need some spices to make it interesting, but that is also true for mass produced meat.
I remember a case where pupils in Britain were given quorn instead of meat, because it was cheaper. I completely understand the anger that came afterwards, the schools should have been transparent with this. But it also shows that it can be produced quite economically.
I think a problem with many mycelium (plural?) was that it can contain a small amount of lactose and some people might be allergic to the proteins itself. Otherwise I would recommend it. Perhaps not as a meat substitute, but certainly as something you can eat.
