We eat mushrooms regularly as long as I am positive about identification. Most of the time, with good field identification manuals and experience, we know what we have. If we don't, we don't eat it.
It is also illegal to pick things in National and Provincial parks, so we have to be in genuine wild territory. I'm also very nervous about locally found mushrooms because of chemical spraying for agriculture, road allowances, and power line control. Our local golf course produces lots of edible mushrooms under the right conditions, but I won't eat them.
But there are still lots of very good edibles out there to be had for the picking.
