You don’t ever eat mushrooms unless u know 100% what it is,difference between life and death
If you don’t know for sure don’t eat mushrooms. And by for sure I mean actually know, just because you read an Internet article doesn’t mean you know.
This is the most misleading mushroom video ever. I’ve eaten angel wings they are not dangerous, unless you’re very old and eat like 7 pounds in a day. And I’ve tasted destroying angel before. Not eaten, tasted. False morels are also usually edible if cooked, though I wouldn’t risk it. mushrooms are my hobby though. If you don’t have real hands on experience with mushrooms a bug out isn’t the time to teach yourself.
I thought these were called toadstools?
Feed them to the muslins.
I have been told never to pick them up! Buy them from shops only.
