Possible allergic reactions and symptoms: Tuber Tuber species have evolved to be eaten and dispersed by small mammals, and consequently, are hypoallergenic to humans. However, problems can arise when bacteria and molds growing on old, rotten or infected truffles are consumed.

If truffles are slimy, sticky, mushy, or smell particularly bad, they should not be harvested, sold or consumed.

Special considerations for storage. A synthetic fiber brush equivalent thickness of a medium toothbrush is used to remove as much soil as possible. Moist cotton fabric can be helpful in clean up truffle fruiting bodies prior to sale.

Before consuming truffles always use a truffle brush and clean under running water and then remove excess water with cotton cloth or paper towel. Truffles are often stored at 4 degrees C in jars or containers that do not allow gas exchange. They may be wrapped in a cloth, paper, or in rice to prevent water films from forming through condensation during the truffle during storage, which act as sites of fermentation and truffle spoilage.

Replace wrapping material every 2 days. Truffles are best consumed within 1 week of harvest. Bonito, G. Smith, M. Nowak, R. Healy, G. Guevara, E. Cazares, A. Kinoshita, E. Nouhra, L. Dominguez, L. Tedersoo, C. Unlike many Psilocybes, it usually lacks a ring. It is considered weak to moderate in potency, and is difficult to find growing wild.

It is variable in color, and can be anything from brown to white, with blue or green bruising. It does have a ring. This species is considered highly potent. Yellow gym, like some of its relatives, does contain psilocybin, but must also contain something else because the subjective experience of taking them is markedly different [xiv].

It is thinner-stemmed than either laughing gym species, and as the name implies is yellowish, both inside and out. It also has a more limited geographic range than the others [xv]. This species has a very long history of use for religious and spiritual purposes and is therefore often associated with fairies and magic in art—to the point that many artists now treat it as a sort of generic mushroom, apparently without realizing it has greater significance.

This is the mushroom with a red cap with white spots or warts, although some subspecies are more often orange or yellow. Fly agaric is not as popular with recreational users as the Psilocybes are, for several reasons. Most obviously, not all subspecies are reliably psychoactive though this one is [xvi] and it is an Amanita, meaning it has look-alikes that can kill you.

Even correctly identified, fly agaric causes mild but very unpleasant illness unless properly prepared. And even under ideal circumstances, this mushroom is rarely hallucinogenic in the strict sense.

It does seem clear this species causes sickness sometimes but not at other times, and the toxin may be able to accumulate in the human body, meaning a person can eat them for years without apparent ill-effects and then quite suddenly get very sick.

But the toxin level may also vary significantly. Though blockier than most true morels, there is a notable resemblance, except this species and its kin have wrinkled, rather than pitted, caps.

The eastern jack [vii] is well-known for two things: one, its gills sometimes glow in the dark the light is, at best, faint ; and two, many people eat it by mistake and spend the next several days very, very sick.

The problem is that, like one of the most sought-after chanterelle species, this mushroom is orange. As the name implies, this is another that can kill you [viii]. It is small, plain-looking, and brown, but it has at one close look-alike that is edible. Not all forms of magic are benign.
