This looks vaguely like boletes but I’m absolutly unqualified to recognise mushrooms.

    Guys! I just saw that kind of haul IRL. Someone just hoped on public transport with a huge bag of mushrooms. To bad I didn’t get a chance to ask for its spot or foraging advice…

      It depends on how much there is.

      Recently, I’ve picked hazelnut enough to cover twice that table. I left plenty on the ground. Now, once the involucre, bad nuts and shells where remove, I have want cover a fifth of the table and got to share btw 10 house. Not that much. Plus hazel don’t disapeare if you don’t live some nut on the floor and I believe the underground part of the fungus either when you pick all the mushrooms.

    • Yep, I think you are supposed to leave some to the people foraging after you.

      Besides, it’s not like you can eat mushrooms all day, because they have poor nutritional value. So it’s rather a luxury than essential food for survival.

      But hey, at least it seems they were cutting the stem rather than pulling the mushroom from the ground, so the mycelium should be safe.
