I came accross this on the internet it claim that there is a way to generate dirt:

> 2. bonemeal mushroom
> 3. climb on top of the huge mushroom
> 4. place ANOTHER mushroom on top of the huge mushroom
> 5. bonemeal it
> 6. The spot where you placed the second mushroom is now dirt.

So is this true? If not is there any other way to easily obtain dirt without any to begin with?
