I found some rotting cubes today in southeastern oklahoma and they had little white worms, are they safe to eat raw or should I boil them or other?

Well I'm a real lowlife tripper who will eat anything I can find, so when I encounter maggots on a mushroom I pop them w/ my fingers and salvage as much as I can. But if the whole shroom feels droopy with maggots there is no salvaging. But if your more lowlife than me, you can just eat them with the maggots anyway. They aren't poisonous and you've probably had a few a McD's.

microwave it for like 20-30 sec depending on how many mushrooms you have. or if you have a good dehydrator just use that, it'll teach them a lesson

yes, dry them, they will come out naturally. I wouldn't microwave it, but I won't dicredit the idea. fan dry them, or put in a desiccant chamber. Heck, it's only extra protien! Yummmm....
edit** - I totally disregarded reading that they were rotting. If they are rotten, throw them out!!

Stinkin Maggots can eat a Cube faster than you can dry it! Less you have silica gel.. I have a sweeet gallon can half full with big ass silica balls.. (thanks Shapper) If you were to stick the cubes in this can It may be able to dry them faster than the maggots can consume them.. But I have seen them consume a 10 gram cube (wet) in a half a day! here is a pic!.

i would compost the really bad ones. create the right environment and you may be greeted with fruitbodies. If you don't personally have a space for composting just ask around. it is a shame to toss them in a plastic trash bag destined for a landfill. in the very least return them to their place of origin georgem

where do they come from? Are they flies larvae? I've eaten a few, alive, cos I always hunt for mushies and used to eat them whole. Never hurted me. But that's disgusting, and now gotta make tea of them cos just the thought of chewing maggots makes me not want to trip so much.

If you know it or not......If u have eaten wild mushies more than likely u have eaten maggots or some type of bug/invertibrate.

I can't believe that's a serious question. Fuck me, if you know where to pick them it's not as if they're a rarity. Imagine the nice maggoty trip it will give you.
