The picture shows two species: macro mushroom A. crocodilinus (left), salty mushroom A. bernardii (right). The phablet is big, but the musrooms are bigger! Both species are edible and marketable mushrooms in Hungary. The huge mushrooms fascinate shroomers on the steppe. Shroomers are looking for Agaricus species. Most of them are really good and edible. However, some species are poisonous! The yellow stainer A. xanthodermus. It is very similar to a good, edible horse mushroom A. arvensis. Identification of Agaricus species ranges from fairly easy to very difficult. The two giants in the picture are easy to recognise. However, A. xanthodermus can easily mislead shroomers, as it does not always turn yellow and is not always odorous. It is a very annoying fungus. Fortunately, the flesh on the bottom of the stem turns yellow and when you heat it up, the fenol smell intensifies. Unfortunately, it causes very unpleasant stomach upset when consumed. It is an intensely negative experience. Be careful when collecting mushrooms!
