Reply to comment by Who_needs_an_alt in Monday on NH Chronicle: Hunting For Mushrooms - Literally me two weeks ago. One of my coworkers stopped to ask if I was okay when they saw my truck pulled over and me wandering around the woods on the side of the road after work. "I'm fine. Just looking for mushrooms!" by Clauss_Video_Archive

Yes, I certainly do. I started foraging for mushrooms last year. Before I harvested anything I just read a ton and took loads of pictures to try to identify what all was out there. I have a friend that knows quite a bit and if I'm ever not 100% sure about something I ask for help. I've collected and eaten five different types of mushroom this past year, all of which are fairly easy to identify and have either no poisonous lookalikes or very few that can be easily ruled out. I'm very aware that many mushrooms can make you quite ill and that some can kill you. I appreciate the warning though. It's always good to be too careful.
