Quote:
Honeys are edible, but frequently cause gastrointestinal problems which can be quite severe. Two specific factors are implicated: 1, insufficient heat in cooking and 2, the use of mushrooms that are either too old and/or have been subject to frost.
The toxins present in fresh young Honeys will break down only with thorough cooking. They should never be eaten raw or ‘lightly treated’ with heat as in stir frying. Parboiling (and discarding the water) prior to further cooking is often suggested, as is simmering the mushroom for at least 15 minutes, as in a well reduced tomato sauce. Honeys can also be ‘cooked’ by pickling them in an acid – usually vinegar – bath. Pickled Honeys are popular in parts of Europe. (For a successful cooking strategy, see the note at the end.LL )
Reports submitted to The North American Mycological Association’s poison registry also indicate that alcohol consumed along with Honeys can increase the severity of the gastrointestinal symptoms, and I once identified Honeys as being the mushroom eaten by a dog who subsequently died (though it was not clear if it had also eaten other species as well).
Mushrooms that have been hit by frost and/or are over-mature will begin to decay and the rotting mushroom presents an excellent environment for bacterial growth which can lead to illness. It is recommended therefore not to collect Honeys after frost.
But “frost” is a very complex phenomena depending not only upon the raw temperature as measured by a thermometer, but also upon factors such as humidity, wind, air drainage, and availability of cover. Honeys fruiting on a tree covered hillside, or under a blanket of newly fallen leaves may escape frost for more than a month after those fruiting in frost pockets in the grassy areas at the foot of a hill. Collecting safe Honeys for the table, then, presents special problems at those times and in those areas where the “first frost” is a probabilistic process. Caution is advised.

Does your google search bar say work?
No it is not magic. But, you may enjoy it as a culinary treat.
Make sure to cook it thoroughly. Let us know if you do and what you think.

You are at the beginning of your journey. Don't have a lot of hope of finding a random psychoative shroom without any effort in studying and acknowledging their powers,aspect,habitat and shit like that. Time and learning sustained by motivation will help you become an experienced shroomerite.
