RE: Mixed Wild Mushroom and Pork Dumplings: A Delicious Fungi Friday Treat

Thank you @xrain! Now you know, and you can harvest them, but be cautious to avoid misidentification. There's a similar species called the common inkcap, which contains coprine. This should not be consumed at least 3 days before or after consuming alcohol, as it reacts and becomes toxic. You'll feel ill, similar to the effects of disulfiram, a drug used in alcohol aversion therapy for people with alcoholism. They tasted nice! 😊🩷

I will be careful - will research all similar mushrooms first, of course. But not soon - I am in Vietnam (no usual mushrooms here) and generally traveling in the tropics, at least a year more probably... Thank you!
