Contamination of dried mushrooms
    #21803142 - 06/13/15 05:12 PM (9 years, 7 months ago)

I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this.  These were not cultivated mushrooms but rather hunted wild, identified by shroomery.org and used several times.  These were hunted fall of 2013. They were thoroughly dried and then they were in mason jars with silicon packs until November of 2014.  Since then they have been in a ziplock bag with silicon packs and stuffed inside one of these containers

They now appear to be much browner than I remember and are not as dry, they are somewhat spongy and don't break apart easily.  They also smell somewhat of urine although i'm 100% they were not peed on since being picked.

I believe they are likely no longer safe but I wanted an expert opinion.  I'm enclosing some pictures:

Current:





here they are in the wild:





Again, apologies if this is the wrong place to post this.  I will happily repost this elsewhere.

If they smell weird I wouldn't eat them. I guess they either weren't dried completely or not sealed up well enough to keep them dry.

That's what I was afraid of.  I know they don't normally smell great but it reminded me of when my dog pees on something and I don't notice right away.

I have found that when they are spongy and change to a more brown colour over a period of time it means they have not dried our properly and sat with moisture in the bag.

I found a couple of 2 year old bag of cubes in Dec and one was perfect and the other had those tendencies. I avoided it but my friends ate them. After spiting them out they learned there lesson.
