Safe to eat what I'm showing you?

This is a portion of what I have picked from a big clump. I have zero experience in this sort of thing, so bare with me when I describe this:
I had a lump of mushroom that looked like a scary midget's little hand, only with like one really long thumb (pictured) and a bunch of little fingers, only a few of which I have showed. From reading, I assume these are 'aborts.' When I picked them away from the clump, they tore off in the sections you see there, until all I have sitting on my desk is a bunch of those things, with none of the mass of the clump left. The entire object separated into the things I have pictured before you.
Should I be trimming any of this away or can I eat any and everything?
I have also bumped up the saturation of the picture to show there is blue-ness to these things, if thats an alright thing as well.
Thanks for your help.

I'd post in the Mushroom Hunting forum for a 2nd opinion though.
Good find

Correct.
>Should I be trimming any of this away or can I eat any and everything?
You COULD eat everything, but I would suggest to trim off the small parts of the substrate still hanging on the bottom of the aborts.
