Not that kind you sickos. :D The kind that you can survive on. I prefer to hunt Chanterelles. What kind do you hunt? :D
 
It's fun to hunt for them. Cooking /eating them is even funner. :D
 
I like mushrooms but I don't hunt for them. My dad once did at our summer camp in NH and he cooked them in a pot with a sliver dollar to see if they safe to eat. The water turned black and when dad was not looking my sister and I dumped the mushrooms out. I have no idea if you can tell if mushrooms are toxic by boiling them with a sliver dollar or this is some old wife tale .
 
Well with proper research you can tell what is safe and what is not. :D
 
Too many of the poisonous ones look like safe ones... I love mushrooms but I do not hunt for any of them...
 
Love them, especially grilled on skewers! I don't have an interest to look for them, I simply grab them at the grocery store! :P
 
I love mushroom too. But I get mine at the grocery store too. I often marinate them with garlic and other sauces.

Silver coin/spoon is an old wives tale. No truth at all.

I collect all kinds of things from the wild. I stick to the easy to identify ones but it still freaks my wife out. :lol: I haven't moved on to mushrooms though I can identify a couple. There is a guy that does a mushroom walk nearby that I keep wanting to go on.

My sister and I kind of thought this was an old wives tales and dad been drinking and wouldn't listen to anyone . We rather had him get mad at us than be dead when we dumped out the pot but we gave back dad his sliver dollar.

Good for you! Best wishes, tho, finding them in the sands of the Vegas region in the future! :D

Send me some ! I forgot to buy some mushrooms while out today. I like the white ones but they don't stay fresh very long so I only buy a few at a time. There is some fungus growing in my back yard , it's round and when I poke it with a stick all this weird brown stuff falls out. It keep growing back in the same spot and I sure not going to pick it. Where do you go hunting for your mushrooms?
