Subject: RE: BS: I Ate A Giant Puffball
Another fungophile here. In fact my kids, when they were small, instead of saying "Money's mushrooms make meals marvelous" more often said, "Mommy mushrooms make meals scary".

One thing that is a good idea, even when you are certain of the identification of the mushroom you are about to eat, when trying it for the first time, only eat a very small amount and then wait awhile to determine anything which might indicate an adverse reaction. Some people do not react well to even the ones that are considered quite edible.

mmmmmm. ......should be some boletes about very soon.
