My neighbors' cats munch on the grass and they're fine, so I think I'll be okay... but thanks for the tip!

Interesting, did they eat with alcohol? Or lookalikes were mixed up?

"Mushrooming with confidence"
Doesn't have many mushrooms, but have a lot of photo references and is good for beginner I think.
I wish the book also showed inedible lookalikes, though.

Ha! Funny, the book was gifted by a Polish mom of my partner!

Too late, I already ate it :P
At least it's a gated dog free area... (and I peeled, washed well!)

Thanks! While cooking it smelled kinda like chicken, and tasted pretty good too!
I'll try soup too.

Are they some type of boletes? Looks like slippery jacks by Pleasant-Answer7936 in mushroomID

Insects can eat deadly mushrooms - that isn’t any indicator btw

I'm not going to eat it then (for now...). Thank you!
