    Yeah, I’m just staying away from that. There are enough other things that can end up in my frying pan with less crawling through the woods while hanging my continued existence on my ability to read and memorize two books worth of not-plant-descriptions.

      All you really have to do is remember one mushroom and find it a lot… you don’t have to know all of them

        Well, during a recent wave of mushroom poisoning people were told that mushrooms can interbreed to create mixed new variants and so one mushroom might not stay one mushroom for long if the conditions allow for it.
