Amanita mushrooms are poisonous. I remember this by a mnemonic device. Amanita = A man eat a. So I say this in my mind: A man eat a mushroom, and then he got sicker than shit.

not all amanita's are poisonous, but the ones you can safely eat look very much like those that will either make you ill or kill.

Quote:
Although most amanitas are toxic, there are several edible species in the genus. The most well known edible amanita is Caesar's Mushroom, a pink amanita with a similarly pink spore print. The mushroom is found widely distributed throughout Europe, and similar North American species are also edible. This particular amanita is quite tasty, and can sometimes be found in European markets in season. The fleshy, somewhat dry mushroom is delicious in a wide variety of preparations.

I get all my mushrooms, except morels and those very special types of mushrooms, at a store. That way if I get sick from them, I can sue the shit outta somebody.
