Danger! Danger! People Don't Eat Mushrooms Some Can Be Deadly - Yahoo! Voices - voices.yahoo.com:

"Do not eat wild mushrooms…yes, they may look perfectly okay but there are so many mushrooms all over the East Coast right now and they're attracting people to fry or prepare them in casseroles and for steaks, chops, to enjoy their flavor. Watch out!! "There are deadly mushrooms that can grow in your lawn," said Rebecca Rader, executive secretary of the North American Mycological Association based in Christianburg, Virginia. Mycology studies fungi's which includes mushrooms.

"There are some that can kill you and many that can make you sick," said Rader."
