I went back and cut them and they did redden a bit. They were a bit dry already though. The main problem with these mushrooms is I always find them in mulch landscaping which probably means there are pesticides and other toxins absorbed into them. Maybe one day I'll find a few out in the forest that are good enough to try eating.

If they're dry they won't discolor as much? I was all set to try a blusher. All the defining features were there but I cut it open and it didn't turn pink. It might have been dry...
Apparently that's where winecaps are found most often and the sources say the same thing about pesticides. Probably not a good idea to eat them.
