Some mushrooms that are listed as edible might be better listed as non-poisonous. I did try a little bit of one of these plums and custard mushrooms which are considered edible in Europe, but it was truly disgusting, with a taste like mud – yuk!

It is likely that this is not in fact Tricholomopsis rutilans but another closely related species. One that has been reported from the Perth region in 2020 is Tricholomopsis scabra.

hahaha!! Thanks for sharing this in 2010, now 2024! I bought a book called FUNGI of the South-West Forests, it said this was Poisonous. Then did research and found your post. Amazing! You are brave to try the mushrooms!
