 I been looking on the internet and it is a type of fungi. called monotropa uniflora  . I think. Or mosre specifically this tpe looks to be  broom rape or indians pipe.

Be come one with Nature......... Then Marinade it.

One moment you're flying south for the winter, then - BANG - gravy.

Not a fungi!  A plant without chlorophyl.  They are parasitic/saprophytic meaning they get their energy from other plants alive or dead.  Some orchids fit this bill as do Indian Pipes (often white, lookes like a pipe).  Here is one that is close...  These are parasitic on fungi but are plants.

http://www.botany.org/parasitic_plants/Sarcodes_sanguinea.php  Just started looking though.

Hope this helps.
