I just looked this up. Interesting enough.

Well?


Yep, looks good. Don’t forget to add pepper & salt pal.

Cheers. Thanks for watching my back.

Found these in the garden yesterday, safe to eat??

Only wan way of finding out.

I am far from an expert and so my opinion is irrelevant. But the default position remains simple: never eat any fungus unless you are 1000% certain of it.

Under no circumstances – personal layman’s opinion – would I eat those yokes.

Not sure what they are – but could not rule out fatal dapperlings. They are loads of them on grass verges on the way in to where I live.

Loads of fungi around, which is a bit unexpected, given how cold it has been at night.

‘fatal’ is good enough for me, I’ll leave them the fuck alone

What do you call a mushroom in a pub buying drinks for everyone?

A funghi to be with.

I’ll get my coat.

Yes… Fatal dapperlings can also resemble parasol mushrooms, which are nice to eat and which I have eaten.

One problem is that many mushrooms look quite different at various stages of their growth. A poisonous mushroom quite obviously so might resemble, in an earlier state, an edible mushroom. Equally, the presence or absence of shade and light in their growing conditions can alter a mushroom’s colouring, making it look different to a ‘normal’ example.

Jaysus.

You’d want your head examined to eat wild mushrooms.

The Poles are big into them. Half of the Limerick Polish community do be above in Cratloe Woods picking all sorts come Aug/Sept. Bucket loads.

Tell me about it. It’s a national pastime. And kids on machines every autumn with liver and kidney failure after eating the bad ones.
