Apparently there's one wild mushroom that if you eat it, you'll be very sick soon after,then you feel better & forget all about it,then three weeks later you die of liver failure.

Amanita phalloides, aka the death cap. I think..... Do NOT eat

It's really nothing to worry about with decent scrutiny and a half decent field guide.

Usually give them a second check at home and 'if in doubt chuck it out'

Imagine the experience for the early hunter gatherers that came across magic mushrooms for the first time
