dried shrooms molding....

Hi, these are Copelandia Cyanescens shrooms with what appears to be a white mold over parts of them. They ended up in a plastic bag in a person's pocket for over 24 hours when they were only partially dried. They also smell somewhat musty/milldewed. Does the white stuff make them unsafe to eat? In other words would it be OK to eat the shrooms in this picture assuming that they are definitely Copelandia Cyanescens. If the white stuff is not OK to eat, is there any way to get rid of it or make it safe to eat? Thanks!

i might stray away from eating them, but... please correct me if I'm wrong.
probably the fact that they were being toted around only partially dry might not have helped :P
peace out!

It looks like that's some mold growing on them, because they were only partially dried... I'm not sure if there's a way to get rid of it, and save the mushrooms, but hopefully there is. Good luck to you.

Although non-toxic molds far outnumber harmful ones, is it really worth gambling on?...I would say no. Take this as a lesson to your friend to have the patience to completely dry them next time. Sorry...

Knowing what you know about molds, would you say it would be safe to eat one shroom and see if I felt at all sick to determine whether the mold is toxic or not?

I've found that if shrooms dry slowly they can continue to grow for a while, and become covered in fluffy mycelium. I've even had piles of fresh shrooms grow together into one big fuzzy clump. Not mould, just the mycelium growing vegetatively, like you can get on caps of growing shrooms if the humidity is low.
