Can you change the flavour of meat by changing the diet of the animal?

For example, if you feed an animal a diet of something such as mushrooms it’s whole life could this make the meat of the animal taste slightly like mushroom?
I think this is the right tag but please correct me if I am wrong.

Absolutely, where I live folks will catch wild hogs and put them in a pen and feed them hog feed and vegetables. A few months of that and when it is time for slaughter the gameiness will be out of the meat. The color and texture will change for the better also.
