Hmm never heard of that. Did you cut them up first? (perhaps they were too fat and couldn't dry before serious mold kicked in)

i think most contams will at the very least make you sick if ingested, so i wouldn't. considering that this only happened to one shroom out of all of them, and that i haven't heard of anything like this before, i wouldn't worry about it. dead organic matter does tend to be a good host for contamination.

I've seen this before as well. Shrooms that are not dried fast enough can get cobweb mold growing on them. I would recommend using a dehydrator to dry them. The times where I just laid them in a window seal is when they had cobweb mold growing on them. Haven't seen it since I bought a dehydrator.

It might not be cobweb, Spinellus fusiger - a competing fungus - does like to eat Agarics and special mushrooms as well.
