And there was GGreatone234, an old 90s mod that used to be in that list too.

that story sounds like a tall tale given our current understanding of mushroom toxicity. :smile:




Yea it is kind of hard to believe. It'd be pretty cool to find the story.

The pair on the right are Russulas. There are lots of Russula species, but they cannot be identified accurately to species without a microscope. Many of them are eaten, only a few are poisonous. The poisonous ones in North America all bruise black (or nearly black) or taste very hot (like hot pepper). To taste one, break off a small piece (smaller than a fingernail) from the cap, put it in your mouth, chew (up to a minute - DO NOT SWALLOW ANY), then spit it out. Some of them are so hot you'll swear you're going to develop blisters. Avoid tasting large numbers of them in a day - there is a recorded case of somebody being poisoned that way.

Happy mushrooming!




There is a case like that involving Galerina, it happened around this time, or before.

True. He had a meltdown/self destructed on here just like john W allan who took a bunch of my Amanita pics and put him on his site. He was known as "mjshroomer"

Man, those must have been the days. I've read through some of the old stuff that pops up from searching. lol


Maybe get with Alan Rockefeller or another mod about your badge, maybe they took it off from inactivity or by accident. Some people also choose not to have it. :shrug:

As long as you spit it out and didn't swallow anything, including juices, you are fine.

I once heard a story of an expert in the field taste testing a deadly Galerina and just tasted a piece the size of a fingernail clipping which they accidentally swallowed. They later died the most horrible death imaginable from mushroom poisoning.




I think you're misquoting this:

Still, eating deadly Amanita spp. is a pretty bad idea...

Not always.  Ken Litchfield has eaten Amanita phalloides twice on purpose and he is fine.

Just small amounts raw, about the size of a fingernail.
