how do i know if a wild mushroom that was growing in a cow pattie is safe to eat?

Answer 1

they are not safe!

Answer 2

First, take a bit of the cow pattie. If you still feel ok the next day, the mushroom should be fine. Dumbazz.

Answer 3

Never eat wild mushrooms. (even if they are growing in a cow pattie) Most wild mushrooms are poison and you will die if you consume them.

Answer 4

pick it , bruise it, and take a spore print, if it bruises blue and matches up with this information below you should be alright, psilocybe cubensis are the most common mushrooms that grow on patties.

Cap is 1.5- 10 cm broad, broadly conical or oval or bell-shaped (often with an umbo ) when young, gradually expanding to convex, broadly umbonate, or plane; surface smooth or with small whitish veil remnants when young, viscid when moist, soon dry, color variable: whitish with a brown to yellowish center, or entirely yellow to yellowish-buff to yellow-brown, or sometimes cinnamon-brown when young and sometimes dingy olive in old age; bruising and aging bluish; margin sometimes hung with veil remnants. Flesh firm, white, staining blue or blue-green when bruised.
Gills Close, adnate to adnexed or seceding to free; pallid, soon becoming gray, then deep purple-gray to nearly black; edges whitish.
Stalk is 4-15 cm long, 0.4-1-5 cm thick, equal or more often thicker below, dry, white or sometimes yellowish to yellow-brown, aging or bruising blue or blue-green; smooth.
Weil is membranous, white or bluish-stained, usually forming a thin, fragile, superior ring on stalk which is blackened by falling spores.
Dark purple-brown to blackish spore print

be safe though if you do believe you have the right mushrooms eat a very small amount to begin with.

happy hunting

peace

Answer 5

Quit trying to trip off mushrooms. That's a great way to get a really bad infection and make yourself look like an idiot.

Answer 6

Just do the research. If it's got a large white top and clean brownish underside it's probably safe to cook in butter. (I grew up on a dairy farm.) Don't eat toadstools, the skinny taller ones that are pinkish on top, they're poisonous.

Answer 7

Watch it! Some people make tea out of those mushrooms and can be hallucinogenic.

Answer 8

If it makes you trip, it may not be completely safe, but you'll have some wild times!!!!

Answer 9

We used to trip on shrooms alot

Answer 10

Answer 11
