Mushroom still viable?

Checked on a long-forgotten bulk grow of pasteurized straw and store-bought dung today and was very surprised to see a fairly large mushroom growing and near fully matured. I had long since given up on this project due to a patch of green which I assume was trich, so I was surprised to see anything else growing from it. I know that people have always said to steer clear of mushies grown off of a substrate that shows signs of contamination, but this one is just too beautiful to throw out. Wondering if anyone knew of any specific health risks involved in consuming a fungi grown off of a partially contaminated substrate.
Thanks

It has been outside for about 3 weeks. Does this make any difference?

I would not recommend eating a mushrooms off contaminated mycelium. I say dont take the risk and grow some more, so you can be sure theyre good.

well did you sit down tonight and eat a big bowl of rye berries, or maybe a verm sandwich with some BRF?
Who knows but just because Kramer ate some mushies before with some green mold, how can he be sure that it is the same mold or contam as before?
I also have know people who have eaten mushies before off of casings with some contams with no signs of ill effects, but again why risk it, one of the main reasons a lot of people grow for themselves is to take the danger out of buying a shroom that came from god knows where, off of the street.
Everyone makes their own decisions though....

It is still drying. Most likely will not be consumed though for the reason that george castanza mentioned, that apprehension over the effects of the contaminated mushroom will most likely cause an unpleasant trip even if there are no other bad effects. Thanks for the input all.

One more question...what about making tea out of the mushroom? Would that be a safe alternative to just eating it?

Do you guys think that the heat from the water for the tea would make it safer to consume that way?
