Two new ones for me. Deer mushrooms are mostly flavorless, but fried crispy in bacon grease they were wonderful.


I took about 5 lbs of resinous Polypore, which yielded down to about 2 cups of useable flesh after trimming off all the woody parts. Only the outer rim was soft enough to eat. It was good - did not taste like anything I’ve ever eaten.

Vegan hunting is far too easy. Quite tasty though, except for the amanitas, dont eat those.

Anyone ever get sick eating these? 30 some years ago a friend and I found a large clusters. We each took half. My wife and I ate on my half and he and his daughter ate on the other half. His wife wouldn't eat mushrooms of any kind. Nobody had any ill effects except my friend, he got sicker than a dog. I'm talking projectile vomiting, chills, profuse sweating and severe stomach cramps. I wish I would just hurry up and die, kind of symptoms. He had eaten them before with no problems, but I haven't been able to get myself to eat them since that incident.
