Re: Hi - Exmonkey from Kent

Thanks all.

There are a great many fungi I wouldn't eat because I have had even just the smallest doubts about.

But the ones above are without doubt deceivers, amethyst deceivers, shaggy parasols and common puffballs. They are all very easy to identify and don't have any poisonous lookalikes. Except for the deceivers, and the spore print (white) confirmed that they where what they looked like.

My view is that most fungi are not deadly, and I only ever eat them once I have consulted every one of my various books, and the internet.
