There are moments where hunting mushrooms in the wild can be very dangerous.

I’m glad that it tries to warn you with its terrible taste

Yes I'm allergic to all mushrooms I've tried - my allergy report just says "mushrooms" so I'd imagine that means all of them. Not anaphylactic but pretty severe bodily evacuation. I did know someone who was deadly allergic to them though, and he said the doctor told him that magic mushrooms would also kill him.
Are there mushrooms in beer? Beer gives me the runs but I always assumed that was because I also have a wheat intolerance.
That's okay, I'm used to questions. I'm also allergic to a ton of raw fruits (mainly apples which actually cause anaphylaxis) and raw veggies. Fine when they're cooked but just not raw ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You don't have to shit in the bathroom though. But we all do our own risk/benefit assessment and it can be very different in different places. Here in Finland it's easy to pick good mushrooms and it's a common pastime, I think that's not the case everywhere.

the risk/reward is just insane.
I find this take ridiculous, there are poisonous fruits and vegetables would you never eat an apple just because there are poisonous fruits out there?

I mean are there fruits that will kill me if I eat one that look like apples? And generally I wouldn’t eat any random fruit I found in the wild either unless I really had to.

Yes, there are they are called Manchineel. But that's beside the point.
You can pick mushrooms your whole life and never be in any risk, you stick to the beginner friendly species and I would bet you need to be drunk and/or legally blind to make a mistake.

How much of it is needed to kill someone?

There's a few top edible mushrooms that look like nothing else. Good starting point

Portabellos are super disgusting to me.
Interesting note that you may not know, surprised me when I learned it way back.
Those little white mushrooms that are everywhere, that are on pizza and you get in the store and portabellos (and cremini, if you've had those)? Same mushroom species! Just picked at different stages in their life cycle.
When immature and white, this mushroom may be known as:
- common mushroom
- white mushroom[11]
- button mushroom[11]
- cultivated mushroom[12]
- table mushroom
- champignon (French for mushroom) de Paris
The above is what most people in the US think of if one talks about a "mushroom".
When immature and brown, it may be known variously as:
- Swiss brown mushroom
- Roman brown mushroom
- Italian brown mushroom
- cremini (also crimini) mushroom[13][14]
- chestnut mushroom (not to be confused with Pholiota adiposa)
- baby bella[13]
I've seen creminis occasionally.
When marketed in its mature state, the mushroom is brown with a cap measuring 10–15 cm (4–6 in).[14] This form is commonly sold under the names portobello,[14][15] portabella,[16] or portobella. The etymology is disputed.[14][15]
Those are commonly sold as stuff like meat substitutes on burgers.

Huh! TIL.

It's never occured to me to wonder if deadly poisonous plants taste good. What does nightshade taste like?

Geology is similar - one gray rock with brown spots is granite, another is zanzibarite - a name I just made up but that's the idea. Difference: geology generally won't kill you.

If someone was to try this when they are desperate for food, usually if alone and lost, they could make a bad situation even worse.
To add to this, people can go for a very long time without food. We have the convention in of eating multiple times a day in modern society, but if a human needs to live off of fat stores -- and, later, muscle -- they can do it for quite a while, unless they're very emaciated.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Barbieri's_fast
Angus Barbieri (1938 or 1939 – 7 September 1990) was a Scottish man who fasted for 382 days,[1] from 14 June 1965 to 30 June 1966. He subsisted on tea, coffee, sparkling water, vitamins and yeast extract while living at home in Tayport, Scotland, frequently visiting Maryfield Hospital for medical evaluation. Barbieri went from 456 pounds (207 kg) to 180 pounds (82 kg), losing 276 pounds (125 kg) and setting a record for the length of a fast.[2]
Water is different -- a human can't go for very long without water. Maybe a week or so, though people have gone longer (albeit that unpleasant things are going to be happening to them). IIRC, the world record is some guy in Austria that got accidentally forgotten about in a jail cell, though he was able to get some condensed water from the walls of his cell.
kagis
Eighteen days later on 19 April, an officer who had unrelated business in the basement opened his cell after noticing the stench that was emanating from it.[4] Mihavecz needed several weeks to regain his health.[2]
But most people are not really in immediate need of food.

¿Por qué no los dos?
