RE: Ephemeral
We call it "vliegenzwam" it is the mushroom out of a children's song where it is said Gnome Spillebeen sat and wobbled upmand down on it and it broke.
We learned it is poisonous, but in Art & Artist @bambuka posted about it and he says you can eat it (my child would say: everything is edible at least once ..).
Interesting! It has its own song! In my country some people believe that some big white mushrooms are a signal that a mythology genius called Pombero was around.
Your son is undoubtedly wise! Mushrooms are a marvel of nature; some are edible, others are hallucinogenic, and some can literally kill you. Just in case, I'll just observe them!
We once borrowed a bookushroom and tested our instinct just by the way mushroom looked. I can tell that if we would follow our instincts we would have been poisoned ourselves 12 years ago.
That is funny, but there are so many plants and fruits that looks like tasty or at least innocent, but are very poisonous... Maybe God doesn't loves us as we think he does!
Or maybe we should let nature live and there's a good reason why poison plants and animals exist.
Maybe 🤔 but in this case, what should we eat... Of course, maybe that poisonous plants are only trying to survive! It's fair! 😄
There's plenty to eat if we skip the poison flora and fauna although humans tend to kill and burn themselves for it. Cashew nuts for example. Who figured out it can be eaten?
I guess that people discover new food when are starving and don't care if is poisonous because will die anyway... The only time I heard about cashew nuts was in a Dr. House episode, it's not common in my country, that kind of fruits are very expensive here!
They are very expensive here as well. After I saw a docu about how dangerous it is to peel them, people, mainly women, with burned of fingers, I understand why.
P.s. everything is since most we have import
