There are many plants and mushrooms that can make you sick, or are deadly poisonous. Be 100% of your identification before you ingest any plant or mushroom. Additionally, sometimes a new food, even properly identified, can cause an unusual reaction – ranging from gastric intolerance to a full-blown allergy. It is your responsibility to make sure you are harvesting the correct plant or mushroom and it is your choice to try any new food.
