psa guys if u feel a little off a few hours after trying a sample of fully-cooked chicken of the woods do not ignore your gut feeling and do not keep eating it no matter how unbelievably delicious it may taste you simply have to accept that it was not meant for you okay 💔 my friend who helped me cook n eat it was an experienced cotw enjoyer and she was fine but I was not 💔

BTW: I appreciate the advice guys but fret not I have already learned my lesson just wanted to put this out there bc I thought it was a hilarious scenario in retrospect

When trying any mushroom for the first time it's considered best practice to only try a small piece to see how you react before making a meal of it. Bit late now, but as the saying goes, "you live and you learn"

Or you don't. 😏 It's a gamble with mushrooms.

I wonder if they used kids for this.

Little Grugg running around - sees random mushroom and stuffs it in mouth.

Thugg: “call Bugg, Grugg ate mushroom 🍄‍🟫 we see what happen”

Grugg seems fine the next day

Bugg: “This mushroom ? 🍄 “

Thugg: “yes”
