Cremini mushrooms, like white button and portobello, can be found in just about any produce section. They're more flavorful than white mushrooms, without being as large and meaty as the supersized portobellos.
Cremini mushrooms are at the middle stage of maturity, more brown than the familiar white mushroom, but not quite as mature as the large portobello. For this reason you may also hear creminis referred to as "baby bellas," or "baby portobellos."
White mushrooms are the youngest, least mature variety. They are the most tender type, and can be found whole or sliced. Cremini mushrooms have a darker color and a meatier texture and flavor, and can also be found whole or sliced. Portobello is the most mature, "full-grown," mushroom, if you will. It tends to be much larger, and is often sold as just the cap alone.
