Strange Blobs on My Cakes

Hi, new member here. I'm a cluster headache sufferer and I have been growing vitamin M for over two years, with great success (usually). Psilocybin has been a lifesaver for me in preventing attacks. I have been using the PF Tek for the most part. In my current grow cycle, I am running across something I have not seen before. I have attached a photo of a cake I birthed and dunk-and-rolled eight days ago.
 The pic shows blob-like structures (about 10-12 of them) on the cake. They have the size and appearance of chick peas (garbanzo beans). They appeared and reached their current size quickly, as I have been checking the cakes daily. To the touch they feel like normal shroom flesh does, and seem to be solid rather than hollow as stems often do. The cake also has the pins and immature mushrooms that I typically see, and these pins and "baby shrooms" have also appeared on many of the other cakes in the current crop, but without the strange blobs that are on this cake. I have never seen anything like this and am wondering if anyone has any relevant knowledge or experience. I read a lot of similar posts but the answers were all over the place and seemed to relate to the specific conditions in the FCs in those posts. Could he blobs be a sign of contamination? If not, will these structures eventually grow into normal fruits? If not, do they contain psilocybin and when should I pick them? Any thoughts would be most welcome.

Thanks everyone. These should not be Penis Envy. The spores I am using are from spore prints I made from previous crops, and I have never used PE. I haven't kept records on the source of my prints so I have no idea what strain is in this cake (except that they are all cube strains). I DO know that the same spores were injected into several other cakes in this crop and only this one has these mini-potatoes. I have read that the Cambodia strain sometimes produces these bodies. Any experience on that?
I am reluctant to toss the entire cake, as this morning it is showing signs of a massive flush. If it is a mutation, would that effect psilocybin content? If it is a "foreign fungus, would I be able to confirm that somehow, e.g., by cutting one open, smell, etc?

It's active mushie tissue, let it keep growing and when they stop pick and eat em! Chances are they are extra potent!

Is this true? I think ive heard it mentioned once or twice before, but I don't think ive ever actually seen a definitive word on it.

Yeah they are mutated blob mushrooms. A mushroom with a long skinny mutated cap will be active, why not a short, fat blob?

They look good to me, it is very unlikely that a foreign fungi made its way in there and even more unlikely that it's dangerous for you.

These weren't PE either. Just got a bunch of blobs on the first flush. Ate some a couple nights ago with no problems. Wait til they stop growing and harvest em and enjoy.

Hi, I'm the OP, and thanks again to everyone for chiming in. I picked one of these bodies last night and cut it open. It was VERY firm, almost dense as compared to normal fruits, but smelled exactly like the cubes I have been harvesting for two years. Last night was "dosing" night for preventing cluster headaches, so I ate this cut along with the capsule of dried shrooms I usually take. I do this right before bed, so I can't say anything about potency, but I did not get sick. Unless something suspicious develops as this cake continues to fruit, I plan to harvest these blobs along with the shrooms that are growing fast. Thanks for all the advice!!!
