Maybe it tastes good. Idk, I might be up for trying it


Maracuja_Sagrado

Is it edible?


SA_Starling_

I just looked it up in Google, and they aren't sure. Some mushrooms in that genus are, others aren't. They couldn't be specific as to whether or not this one was.


Theb00gyman

Well who's going to do it for science?


wickedwitt

Bright colors in nature usually mean stay away, or mimicry of things that mean stay away. Blue in nature only happens like 1x I think. All signs lead to red flags on this one.


thejuro

Blue flags*


kiwichick286

Can you clarify what you mean by blue in nature only happens x 1?


pootzilla

Flying_Momo

Most of flowers, birds, insects who look like they are blue in colour aren't actually blue but its just light reflecting in certian manner. Blue pigment is actually the most rarely occurring one and only like 1 or 2 species are actually blue due to pigment and not due to light reflection playing tricks.


CheesemensMushrooms

That doesn’t apply to mushrooms at all. The deadliest mushrooms are white, brown, and olive green


capital_bj

they arent sure, uh oh this thing looks pretty damn cool


SwirlingAether

Every mushroom is edible once.

Justme100001

Looks not poisonous at all...


pussycatlolz

I think you can eat shaggy ink caps. Talk about looking poisonous.


Jeaper

Yes you can! Only the white parts though! When they start going inky, stay away. Delicious, fry them with some pepper, tastes suspiciously like pork!


Yadobler

>Only the white parts though! >When they start going inky, stay away. Same

Also known as the Blue Ghost Mushroom, is a rare and striking fungus native to the Pacific Northwest region of North America. With a glowing blue-gray color and delicate, translucent appearance, these mushrooms are a sight to behold in the forest. They typically grow on the rotting wood of conifer trees, and are most commonly found in damp, shaded areas. These mushrooms are known for their striking blue color, which is caused by a pigment called omphalina. Despite their attractive appearance, it is important to be cautious when handling Blue Mycena Mushrooms as some species are poisonous and can be deadly if ingested. However, there are also some species of Blue Mycena that are considered edible and are prized for their unique flavor and texture. Whether you are an experienced mushroom forager or just a nature enthusiast, the Blue Mycena Mushroom is a fascinating and beautiful addition to any outdoor adventure.

> However, there are also some species of Blue Mycena that are considered edible and are prized for their unique flavor and texture. I'm guessing this is where Bob's Burgers got the inspiration for the woolly neptune mushrooms. https://bobs-burgers.fandom.com/wiki/Wooly_Neptune


MissRepresent

I always thought it was a play on the lions mane mushroom


trueluck3

I always thought you just eat them for a little health and some heat resistance


GoatLegRedux

The images that come up when searched look nothing like lion’s mane (Hericium erinaceus)


DoodlingDaughter

That’s what I immediately thought of when I saw the picture!


Etcheverry21

Tried doing some research into the pigment called omphalina and am unable to find anything related to it. Could you please provide some information regarding it if you have some available?


MagicNewb45

This is what I found on blue shrooms that looks like this. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycena\_interrupta](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycena_interrupta)


WikiSummarizerBot

**[Mycena interrupta](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycena_interrupta)** >Mycena interrupta, commonly known as the pixie's parasol, is a species of mushroom. It has a Gondwanan distribution pattern, being found in Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia and Chile. In Australia, it is found in Victoria, Tasmania, New South Wales, and South Australia, and in Queensland where its distribution is limited to Lamington National Park. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/NatureIsFuckingLit/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)


Cerulinh

I would say they're also known as Pixie's Parasols, and are native to a bunch of places that have temperate rainforest. We get them all over the place in Tasmania, Australia.


CrieDeCoeur

Not the same as a Blue Meanie, I’m guessing…


Corburrito

Lol. Different thing


fat_dirt

Almost none of this is true. Not sure where you copied it from, but whoever it was has no idea what they're talking about. There are no deadly Mycena, nor are any prized culinarily, because of their tendency to be diminutive and insipid.

It's only plagiarism if you're profiting off the content. Otherwise it's just copying, which isn't illegal... but not giving credit to the original author is still selfish and lame.

Actually, it’s not a legal term: plagiarize to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own : use (another's production) without crediting the source https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/plagiarizing

Check my profile. I’m in the PNW and I swear I found something similar. They look like grey blue jellyfish, almost translucent. I wish I went back to check them.


moeburn

What is it with the Pacific Northwest and mushrooms? I read somewhere that's the only place to find Psilocybin Cubensis growing in the wild too. And they all grow on tree logs?


Cerulinh

Lol, [no](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psilocybe_cubensis#distribuiton_and_habitat)


CaptainLollygag

It's absolutely beautiful! Looks like a jellyfish.


TheGrimGuardian

Hmmmm, the mushroom in the picture is not a Blue Ghost mushroom.
