All you really have to do is remember one mushroom and find it a lot.. you don't have to know all of them
That is until you realize there was another mushroom that looks just like the one you were looking for that kills you... which is the point of the post
So, if we just learn one that DEFINITELY DOES NOT have an evil twin, we should be good?
Aww, just like ME!
That’s chicken of the woods, named for its flavor. If you see something that makes you say “that looks like chicken of the woods” it’s because it’s chicken of the woods.
Thanks for not being an asshole
Not sure that's what was happening anyway.
How about when you are the first person to discover there IS a deadly lookalike to chicken of the woods?
I get your point but yeah - mushrooms are not going to be my goto if I'm stranded in the woods, and it sounds like they really shouldn't be the goto of anyone not already an experienced mushroom forager before they end up stranded in the woods.
Well, during a recent wave of mushroom poisoning people were told that mushrooms can interbreed to create mixed new variants and so one mushroom might not stay one mushroom for long if the conditions allow for it.
Wellp.
