hey there say, ken m... that is terrible, :O


also, i DO remember this same type warning, in the newspapers, one year,
wayyyy back, when i lived there...

this is from an article, though, that i just found:
We learned that most mushroom poisoning deaths in the United States occur among Southeast Asian immigrants from Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam. They mistake the deadly but common “Death Cap” for an edible mushroom, nearly identical in appearance, that is commonly found in their home countries. Because the Death Cap does not exist in Southeast Asia, immigrants from that region eat the toxic fungus, unaware of the risk that they face.

those mushrooms looks beautiful, and I was planning to take them home to cook but I"ve been told by passing euros that those mushrooms are extremely poisonous and deadly. I dropped them from the trunk into forrest.

Alexey - The mushrooms you show look just like King Boletus (Boletus edulis) the very finest of the edible mushrooms. The Euros were just jacking you around so they could have them all to themselves.

Get a good mushrooms guide (like Mushrooms Demystified by David Arora) so you can be absolutely sure. White pores when young, not bruising blue.

OK bushman. See them green gills/ Those are Chlorophyllum molybdites, the "green parasol" aka "vomiter". Do not eat unless you love getting sick!

What about these? they remind me of the "Liberty Caps" that were from the same region as the "Seattle Supersonic" cica 1985,
fun in tea, tough on the tummy when chomped on 'raw'

With new measure, 'magic mushrooms' could be decriminalized in California as early as 2018

http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Magic-mushrooms-could-be-legal-in-California-as-11973494.php#photo-13920777

Before California voters can vote on the measure, at least 365,880 signatures will be required to put it on the 2018 ballot.

Kevin Saunders, a mayoral candidate in Marina, Monterey County, submitted the measure. Psilocybin, Saunders told the LA Times, helped him quit heroin over a decade ago. He sees the initiative as a "natural progression" from the legalization of recreational marijuana use in November with the passage of Proposition 64.

Thanks Oplopanax,

Only mushrooms I eat these days come on the occasional pizza. I was more worried about my dogs and goofy neighbors...
They are already in the compost bin!
The mushrooms, not the neighbors, ha ha.

Found this monster growing next to a pine tree stump. Probably about 12 in across at the top. Does anybody know what it is?

Uh, it’s a Big Un! Would need better shot of stalk and underside, particularly the stalk to cap area.
