The Poison Control Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia is warning of mushroom foraging after an uptick in poisonings.
Wild mushrooms that are safe to eat in other parts of the world can look similar to mushrooms here that are highly toxic due to differences in soil and climate.
The Poison Control Center at CHOP does not recommend eating wild mushrooms unless an experienced mycologist, an expert with a scientific background in mushroom identification, declares it as safe for eating. "There are very easy ways to tell them apart if you know what to look for, but the nuances between the differences in species is very, very hard to differentiate sometimes for people who have not looked at them a lot of times, over a lot of years, and people can make mistakes with similar looking mushrooms," said Teigen.
