Which Mushrooms are Safe to Eat?

Mushrooms grow in many locations as well are plenty in their types and taste, but how do you know which ones are safe to consume?

It is always best to research and find information that is peer reviewed by experts, especially when needing accurate information that can result in death. To determine what mushrooms are safe to eat start by avoiding mushrooms with a red cap/stem, white gills, a skirt or ring on the stem and a bulbous or sack like base called a volva. The best rule of thumb is to never eat mushrooms unless you are 100% sure that they are safe to consume.
