question regarding eating smushrooms off a cake with contams
    #5996478 - 08/25/06 03:36 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

hello, i have a cake that i have had to cut on because of green mold.
any way, the 1st time i spotted some mold i just decided to cut it off with a sterilized knife. later primorida came along, then i spotted another piece of green mold, therefore, i cut that off as well.

So far, i have some mushrooms grwoing on them, so far no sign of contam...
Do you think its safe to eat them as long as i dont see any green mold on the mushroom  it self???? or could it be that some how the mold got into de mushroom it self even though if i see no sign of it??

they are nice healthy looking mushrooms, it would be a shame to throw them away... :sad:

thanks in advance

i wouldn't eat any shrooms off a contam cake. the mycelium network carries nutrients throughout the whole of the cake to growing shrooms. so even if the shrooms are on the other side of the cake to the contam, chances are the shroom has got some contam in it.

its your call but i wouldn't :confused:

If there isnt any mold directly on them, and they are full good looking mushrooms... i would eat them... but thats just me...  :crazy2:

I took 10 or so cakes that became contaminated once... cut off all the green mold then buried them under peat moss outdoors.

I'm not saying do it....

we ate em... we are fine

The question is: Is green mold, I.E., Trich, harmful. Not all molds are bad. Somehow I thought the reason green mold is evil is that it takes over and prevents fruiting, not because it's toxic.

Weather or not trich is toxic, though, I can't answer.

If you don't ask the question, you always get it wrong.

I've always cut the mold off cheese all my life and eaten the good stuff. I wouldn't eat black fuzz but green has always been ok. Also when we were in Amsterdam nearly all the fresh shrooms (from various shops) had grown mold from being packaged to long, we ate em anyway.

The green mold contaminants of mushroom culture are not dangerous to healthy people. This has been covered in many threads. If you eat mushrooms that are rotten because of bacteria, you can get food poisoning and be sick.

We toss out projects with green molds to save our growing area for future projects rather than allowing molds to sporulate in them. We don't toss them to save ourselves. Ever wonder what makes blue cheese blue? http://www.straightdope.com/mailbag/mbluecheese.html

I'll move this to the contamination forum.

I wouldn't take a chance.

Even though they don't SHOW any signs of having the mean green, that doesn't mean it isn't still being carried through the myc network.

Plus, I'd hate to have an upset stomach ruin a good trip :frown:

Happened to the first cake I made and not only did those little bastards get eaten they got printed and spawned a new batch after them. So I'd say EAT 'EM.

I would think making tea would be a better idea... Have fun and make sure you are confident in your decision before dosing! I'd hate for you to worry about that and get off on the wrong foot...

what about wild mushrooms growing on livestock(cow, horse, etc..) manure?

Sure eating a cow patty is a bad idea but I've never gotten sick from eating fresh wild shrooms or making a tea with them.

Long as you dont eat bad mold/bacteria you should be fine. If you're still sketchy you would be "safer" if you made tea.

Am I the only one with a copy of Stamets "The Mushroom Cultivator" handy?

Trichoderma, under Medical Implications: "Not known to be pathogenic"

A pathogen causes disease or illness to its host. While the mean green is pathogenic to healthy mycelium, it is NOT to humans. I've witnessed individuals eating fruitbodies covered in fuzzy trich, and not only did they survive, they couldn't stop smiling for the next 6 hours =)...... Still, I don't recommend eating the mushrooms if they are green.... Don't worry about the mycelium network carying trich nutrients to your fruitbodies.... That's just silly.
