Toadstools, Mushroom?

Or is it a mushroom?

Toadstool sometimes/often suggests a fungus that is inedible or possibly poisonous while mushroom tends towards an edible one.

If you are ever going to collect fungi to eat I have heard it is best to divide your collection into three parts.

The first is for you, the second is for the doctor, and the third is for the coroner.

Thanks Dave, I won’t tell my wife that one

Have a hallelujah.

My wife often jokes that she'll put anything in her mouth and went through a period of "Tom and Barbara" living off the land. She had a long email conversation with John Wright (River Cottage mycologist) about what she'd found. Ended up mis-identifying something, frying it up, failing to forcefeed me with it, eating it, then bed-ridden for 2 days.

Marriage can be very dangerous.
