I took a walk to the store. On my way back I thought these were some kid’s balls 🏀. I looked closer kicked it a lil and realized it was a mushroom. Does anyone know what these are?

giant puffball. Could be Calvatia gigantea or something very closely related.

depends if it has gills or not, We have an Amanita here that sits close to the ground and looks like this, you have to pick it up to see that it has gills. It's also possible that this is Calvatia.

I live in central Pennsylvania if that helps. It’s down the street so I’ll check for gills next time I walk to the store.

I’ve just read that they are edible but you won’t see me eating one of these.

If it is Calvatia, they are only edible before the spores start to form, they will have a pure white flesh when edible.
