I like to forage a bit but there are very few mushrooms I will take, and even then not without checking again. Mostly ‘cos I never seem to find any at all, but heyho.
It’s not just mushrooms to check… Just the other week I found some nice mint, took some home and made mint tea for me and my wife. Later that evening I decided to look up what type of mint it was and discovered Pennyroyal, a poisonous type of mint. Cue a mild panic until further research turned up that a) pennyroyal tea is not so bad and b) it probably wasn’t pennyroyal, though I still don’t know what it was.
Oops. Lesson learnt.
