  6. Poland has one of the most developed wild mushroom eating culture in the west. I used to forage for wild mushrooms since the early childhood and I was eating them together with the adults. These days the health officials are saying that I'm not allowed to feed even the most basic wild mushroom to my daughter until she's 12. I can't shake the feeling that it's some sort of colonial culture war against the polish traditional food. My question to the eastern fedi friends, where the mushroom culture is way more developed than in Poland - what are the recommendations towards feeding the wild mushrooms to children in China or Japan? Do you also treat it this strictly or do you allow some of the most obvious and common ones on your children plate?

  11. The Register: AI-assisted mushroom hunting is a recipe for a bad trip. “Armed with a dataset of Danish mushrooms and additional information about safe and deadly species in Poland and abroad, [Piotr Migdał] tested everything from ChatGPT to Qwen to see which gave the most reliable advice. It likely won’t surprise you to learn that none of them are worth trusting with your life.”

  21. This is Amanita flavoconia. Can you guess its most used common name?

    A. Tequila Sunrise
    B. Orange Platter
    C. Yellow Patches
    D. Carrot Hat

    If you guessed C then congrats!

    Mushroom ID can be infuriating, and sometimes the common names don’t help.

    Is it yellow? Kinda, but it has more orange.

    Does it have patches? A yellowish one on the cap’s edge and one on the ground below.

    An an earlier stage it likely looked quite different. Perhaps yellow. With patches.
