I'm gonna eat these spikey fuckers tonight.
>>4893897Fungi are way cooler than other plants
>>4893905Very true. I should try growing some mushrooms.
>>4893897hope they are bitter
>>4895500why?
>>4896995cum
>>4897073Yes that's what fungal spores technically are, your point being tho?
>>4893897>Autumn>Fungus season>See a huge tasty mushroom>I want that mushroom>Wonder how big the chance is that this particular mushroom will obliterate my kidneys and lead to a slow and painful, but assured, death>Higher than 5%>Do not eat tasty mushroom>Sad mushroomless anon
>>4897395Good thinking from your part Anon-senpai, because allegedly the deadliest of Amanita toadstools taste deceptively sweet.
>>4897395>>4898291Man I really want to get into mushroom picking and foresting and shit but that's my biggest fear, I don't want to fucking kill myself and I also don't trust ChatGPT enough yet to identify stuff for me
>>4898296i think if i remember right shelf mushrooms are generally safer and gilled ones are usually the man killers, probably a good place to start with chicken of the woods and shit like that, also wild mushrooms have a greater allergy risk than cultivated ones so don't stuff yourself on something you haven't tried before
>>4898296Most shrooms with a spongy hymenium are good to go with the inedible/poisonous ones being quite telling about such status, either by tasting incredibly bad or smelling of rotting meat. And regarding the gilled ones, as a noob it's best to stick with store-bought champingons instead of gambling life, as even alleged pros can get things wrong and suffer from it with their whole family.
>I'm gonna eat some random human tonight.
>>4899362champignons always have dark gills, even when young, while all amanita family shrooms have pure white gills. anyone mixing the two is not a pro.
>>4899405 >champignons always have dark gills, even when young. Actually they're brownish-pink at their youngest, but I won't digress much about this statement.I always thought that anyone who mistook one for a destroying angel was either an utter novice or starting to loose their eyesight in order to make such a foolish mistake, that is until I discovered these paranoia inducers growing in droves at a local park.
>>4898291Forbidden mushroom stew...>>4898296I'm with you. I know a thing or two, but I also know I'm a dumbass and that image in my head of "tasty food mushroom" next to "lethal poison" from the textbook might very well be inversed - it just isn't worth the risk. But also because:>>4899173>>4899362General reminder that mushroom species differ from region to region and what is true for your local area is not necessarily true 100km away. In a Norwegian forest I'd be pretty alright collecting at least one type of edible mushroom, when I last tested myself on Polish mushrooms a poisonous one snuck into my selection.I wish mushrooms weren't so tasty so that I didn't continually get tempted to eat them.
