Come on, at least tell us how many differences we're supposed to be spotting.
How dare you insinuate an AI app could replace Uncle Iroh?
Most edible mushrooms are easy to identify. At least I think so.
Well, one could argue that it is the other way around. We consider most mushrooms as feasibly edible when it is easy enough to distinguish them from non-edible ones. There are thousands of mushroom species out there that are probably edible but that are just not worth anyone's time. And we also focus more on certain groups of mushrooms that contain a higher percentage of edible ones, like boletes (and also champignons).
That's fair. Few people dare to eat the edible Amanitas, although they're said to be quite tasty. If the deadly species didn't exist, they would probably be much more popular.
All mushrooms are edible. At least once.
