Truth02 User ID: 75965553 United States 10/11/2018 01:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Published on Oct 15, 2016 Turkey tail (Trametes versicolor) is a frequently encountered medicinal mushroom that typically inhabits deciduous logs, stumps, sticks, and snags. This species is not difficult to locate, though several fungi visually resemble turkey tail — including the false turkey tail (Stereum ostrea) and violet toothed polypore (Trichaptum biforme). |

A couple of years ago I read about an entire family that was fatally poisoned by the mushrooms they had picked and eaten in Mexico. But the kicker is, as far as they could tell, they had not picked the wrong species by mistake. For some reason, those Mexican mushrooms at that time had chosen to be poisonous. |

There were mushrooms growing all over the place. I picked a huge amount , put them in a napkin. When I got home, I was going to do the paper test, I pulled the cap off and there were worms inside the gills Thousands of tiny wriggly worms, looked like a fucking alien I screamed threw them all away. I can't even eat a real mushroom now. So turned off. The best mushrooms I had were called philosifer That was in Amsterdam million years ago. Never will I eat a mushroom again Magic or not. |

That is why one should learn about them and pick only what they know.. in it's season. |

Quoting: tcs I've read that even some "mushroom experts" end up killing themselves by mistakenly consuming what they thought were edible mushrooms. Locals say morels have no poisonous doppelgangers so morels are all they eat wild. I've thought about buying spores to grow on fallen trees. I suppose there is a small chance of a volunteer getting lost in the crowd. |
