I heard this one recently: “All mushrooms are edible. Some only once.”

  It may actually be true, some patch-specific varieties apparently can trigger severe allergic responses in some individuals, and not others. It was one of those weird stories I never could find much information about. =)

    I'd believe it; fungal antibiotics (e.g. neomycin, various -cillins) trigger allergic responses the same way.

      Indeed, it certainly does sound plausible... It would be terrible being 2 hours away from civilization, and in need of an Epipen. Have a great day, =3
