I’ve often wondered about how people found out which mushrooms, or for that matter a lot of foods, were safe to eat. It had to be trial and deadly error
An old survival manual said to take a sample the size of a BB and wait for ill effects. One can go days without food if necessary for testing, but most will already be familiar.

Writing that may be the second mycologist. The first is stretched out with purple spotted mushrooms in his belly.

All mushrooms are edible—but some kinds, only once!
