What are these?

[steve_sordy]

I found these on my lawn. They were where I normally wash my bike, so I'm assuming that the spores may have been washed off and into the grass. They are quite small mushrooms; the picture is 4" square (100mm x 100mm). Anyone know what sort they are? And of course, are they edible?

All mushrooms are edible .................................although some you can only eat once!

I tried Google Image Search, and got 60-70 different mushroom types that all look like mine!
I am better informed, but no wiser!

They look like Poplar Fieldcap mushrooms.. They start off round and bulbous but become flat and wrinkled as they expand. Edible, strong nutty flavour

"Look like" Yep, that's the problem, the other 50-60 species "looked like". I wouldn't be at all surprised if there was an identical one called "Deadly Poplar Fieldcap"

Should they be cooked or does that turn them into the deadly version?

Thanks for the vote of confidence, it sure beats the post by @Nicho

Where’s your sense of adventure?

Just get them down your neck

I'd rather put them down my wife's neck. But as she has told me before "I'm not putting that in my mouth!"

I found these in the garden - apparently they were used by the traditional inhabitants of this region as an aphrodisiac. I can't imagine how that could be successful , because they smell like rotting flesh - the halitosis would be unbearable!

 

[Pdoz]

Definitely eat them.
Didn't some old bird in Oz recently put mushrooms in the diner and the guests all died?

Nah, her husband is recovering , unfortunately 3 guests didn't survice.

They look like oyster mushrooms. That are edible.
But I am no expert and am not 100% sure. Look around and you will find a Facebook group for local mushroom identification.

But an easy rule if thumb. If it has white gills and you are not 100% sure what it is then don't eat it.

Not heard that before, thanks. I was sticking to the "not 100% sure" rule.

The most dangerous/deadly mushrooms are the white gilled ones

You dont want to mix these 2 up.

Bolete's are pretty much all eatable as far as I know. They have a spongy look to the gills.

Haha.. You're asking e-bike experts about safety advice for eating wild mushrooms!! Not sure you'll get reliable answers here though. Hopefully nobody will take this thread seriously!

These grow wild here in the PNW this time of year and are quite popular at parties.

I normally see these on my regular trail. Poisonous Fly agaric I believe.

I saw these edible mushroom on a stall in the South of France, zoom in. All edible, and despite what they look like, none of them are loaves of bread.

 

[Giff]

DON’t eat them. In France the pharmacy will test them for you and even ”experts” use this service.
Google…. annual deaths…. from eating wild mushrooms.

Those Boletes look just fine to me! I'd chance them for sure. Saw some folks on the trail today with a sackfull and they didn't look that good.
