Yeah this article is kind of annoying. I've started foraging for mushrooms in the past few months and I've never found a morel but I know they're poisonous when raw. It even says so on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morchella#Toxicity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morchella#Toxicity
There are plenty of gaps in knowledge about mushrooms, and there's a lot of unknowns about the ecology of morels but plenty of people eat these all the time.
- weaksauce 3y agoit’s written to an academic standard by the looks of it. they can’t claim things without proven research on it. the article says that the research into the toxin is not well characterized which is academic speak for that. that said it’s common knowledge to anyone who knows anything about mushrooms that you need to cook morels.
