BilletHead Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Started checking my roadside places for one to show up. they are and that got me off the road looking a bit harder. Great crop and some of the best quality I have ever found. Thick stalks on some and the beetles and worms had not infested them. Gave the mushroom knife a good work out, An old man of the woods. Supposed to be edible but not choice.

Still not too interested in trying them. My cousin has tried and eats them but he looks like an old man of the woods. Really does. Long before he ate them but think they put him over the top.

jdmidwest Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 They look like ones that you should not eat. Stems with a cap. Too hard to tell. They eat false morels around here also. Not always deadly, but could be if you don't cook the poison off of them. "Life has become immeasurably better since I have been forced to stop taking it seriously." — Hunter S.
