Hericium erinaceus, ie Lions Mane.  Delicious but I've never been lucky enough to try one.  Good find, that thing is massive. :thumbup:

Its kind of hard to see in the video, but it looks like it might be a Hericium.  If it is, you just got really fqn lucky!  Wild Hericium is one of the best edibles you can find!  And to have a nice fresh one in that quantity is really fortunate.  Cool New Orleans accent btw.

Is it this one?

Or this?

I don't think there are any poisonous mushrooms that look like that but don't eat it until you are pretty sure you know what it is.

too bad i can't watch video.

i identified my herecium the other day from about 30 yards, rating about a 9 out of 10 on the drive by scale [my name for the classification of mushrooms according to how fast one can be driving down the road and still identify them]. sorry; i stole that bit frome somebody else several years back.

thats hericium erinacius...

once the flesh turns cream colored they sour and are no good to eat.

fresh they remind people of seafood.
