Some, but not all mushrooms are potentially deadly to consume.  You should exercise great caution in picking any wild mushrooms.\n\nAny mushrooms purchased at the grocery store are safe to handle and consume.

It is Medusoid Mushroom.

No.  But you'd better seek medical attention to get it cleared up.  Yeast is natural in the body and only presents a problem when there is an overgrowth of the normal amount.

The poisionous toxins from the mushroom will not get into the plant if that's what you mean.

Probably...yes. If not just gross. Usually fungus found in bathrooms (or moist areas) contain small amounts of toxins, and when congregated can be quite hazardous. These fungi generate spores that when inhaled can have nasty effects. Definitely do not ignore this one.

Thank you!\n\nNo, mushrooms are not vegetables.  They are not even plants by any sense of the word.  They do not photosynthesize, they do not seed or bear fruit.  They have just as much (or as little depending if you are a glass half full or half empty person) in common with animals as they do plants.\n\nSpeaking of definitions, a vegetable is not defined by what you find in a salad.  A vegetable refers to the part of a plant that is not directly involved the reproductive cycle of that plant.  A fruit on the other hand is not defined as some sweet that you can put in a cake or serve with ice cream, rather it is the part of the plant that is the result of the reproductive cycle and carries the plant embryo (seed).\n\nExamples:\ntomato = fruit\navocado = fruit\ncoconut = fruit\npinecone = fruit\nbanana = debatable... flower?\ncinnamon (bark) = vegetable\nblade of grass = vegetable\na piece of 2x4 = vegetable\n\n\nEconomically, as mentioned by the answerer above, an edible mushroom can be classified as "food" but not vegetable, fruit, or meat. \n\nEcologically, you can lump a mushroom in with bacteria, mold, worms, maggots, vultures, hyenas, and any other scavanger that comes to mind.

Fungi are chemoautotrophs, so they don't hunt for anything. \nBut I'd hunt for them, oyster mushrooms are delicious!

I hope you are not wanting to eat them, these mushrooms usually will grow in the leaf litter on a forest flooor, especially after rain.\n\nyou could grow themin a mushroom kit if you wanted

Usually, if a cheese is old you might get mold.  (Hey that rhymes!)  But if you cut it off it should be okay.  It may be that it was just too old, or it picked up odors from the fridge, or it was just lousy cheese to begin with.  My rule is that if I put something in my mouth that tastes really bad, I don't eat it.  Pretty simple, huh?

Don't get high anymore. But when I used to get high I could talk backwards better than forwards. Weird for me but REALLY weird for the people on mushrooms who were having a bad ride.

No....you'll have fungus tongue. Don't worry. This will serve to help you with your "cheese" issue. Fungus is a great fiber source.

By making conditions unfavourable for the fungi to live and cause fermentation. Basically, by a mild form of poisoning.

All the gill mushrooms--the true mushrooms--are basidiomycetes, so the white button/field mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, portabellas, chanterelles, and wood or honey mushrooms (matsutake) are all examples of basidios. Pretty much all your commercially available fungi, except truffles and morels, are basidiomycetes. And if you get into mycorrhizal associations, they're even more useful in foodstuff production.

I'm an experienced mushroomer.  You can find hallucinogenic mushrooms growing in cow-patties, as several people have suggested.  However, the majority of mushrooms that grow from cow patties are not hallucinogenic, and some of these are poisionous and could kill you.  Another misconception about mushrooms is that ALL psilocybin mushrooms are hallucinogenic.  While many are, many are not.  The most common mushroom people find in cow patties is a non-hallucinogenic psilocybin.  These and the deadly galerinas are hard for amateurs to differentiate, too.\n\nhope this helps
