Hi. Question about mold on dry shrooms.
    #7679950 - 11/25/07 08:22 PM (4 years, 5 months ago)

I posted this in a another thread and I was told that they're still fine to eat. I trust them and I'm planning to have my first trip very soon. I would just like to know (pics would be great) how mold would look on dry shrooms.

Here is a pic of what I got and tell me if anything is strange or should concern me. They are 6 months old and have been stored in a baggy in my guitar case in my closet.

Here is what they looked like when I bought them last June.


Here they are now.


Thanks for the comments in advance.

You shouldn't have a mold problem if they are properly dried. Also, the mold you would get from improperly dried shrooms would cause them to get slimy. You are just fine.

They're fine.

Based on how they are bent in that bag in the first photo, I can tell that they were not fully dried.  This of course, raises their weight.  I wouldn't purchase from that person again.  In any case, they were not damp enough to mold, so they are fine to eat.  But tell the guy that he needs to dry them properly, or you'll tell everyone he doesn't dry them fully so he can sell them at a higher weight.  :wink:

The way the stems are bent up is a dead give away.  They should "SNAP" like a dry cracker when bent.
