Over the years, Creative Bloq has brought you several instances of Highly Serious and Important Breaking News regarding inhabitants of the Mushroom Kingdom. From the contents of Toad's hat to the fact that only one female character has teeth, these tidbits are arguably important enough to become part of the national curriculum.

Which might not sound like a particularly controversial statement – but the internet isn't buying the 'friends' bit. Not one bit.
