Who here has gone mushrooming?
I and friends used to pick mushrooms all the time. Just field mushrooms. We knew the big yellow mushies in the pine forests were edible but we weren't confident to pick them. Some local Italians used to.
Same! As kids we used to collect them from the horse paddock nearby, and only the ones with pink or brown underneath. We never got the ones that were any different to that. Very glad I didnโt accidentally poison the whole family, though.
There are currently big yellow ones in my front yard which the snails or slugs seem to love
