Varieties of mushrooms
In the world there is a huge number of mushrooms.According to different sources, they number from 10 000 to a million species. Some of them are used in cooking, medicine, pharmaceutics, others are bypassed by the tenth road due to high toxicity.
Mushrooms that have a nutritional value and canused in cooking without any health effects, called "edible." These include real redheads, white mushrooms, real mushrooms, russules, morels, boletus, podberezoviki, raincoats, common chanterelles and others. Some species are conditionally edible. They are safe only after special treatment or at a certain age.
Inedible mushrooms are often confused with poisonous, butthis is not entirely true. Poisonous species contain substances that cause poisoning. Their use leads to disorders of the digestive, nervous system or to death. The most poisonous in the world is a pale toadstool, even 30 grams of this fungus can cause serious health problems.
Несъедобные грибы не так страшны.In most cases they are simply insipid, have bitterness, an unpleasant smell, grow on feces or are simply poorly absorbed by our body. In the category of inedible they are also determined due to hard flesh, too small size or extreme rarity. Let's get acquainted with some of their representatives.
The false chanterelle

It is painted in bright orange, but it is pale, reddish and even white. Unlike a real chanterelle, a false mushroom can be wormy, its flesh has an unpleasant smell, and spores are colored white.
Goldenbatus golden
Bolbitus is a very interesting inedible mushroom,painted in a light yellow color. He has a small hat shaped like a bell with a diameter of up to 4 cm and a long leg that grows to 20 cm in height. As the fungus ages its hat straightens, becomes flat and torn along the edges, and the color changes from yellow to brown.
Golden goldenbite practically does not occur inforests. It appears from May to November in the meadows, among dense grass and hay. The life of the fungus is incredibly short, it grows old and dies, literally in a few days. It is assumed that it is not poisonous, but it is not used for food.
