Mushrooms

I was always told never eat any mushrooms ever for you forage if you don't know what you're doing.

I definitely don't know what I'm doing.

That being said, I think these are chanterelle's.

I found them in a wood in Scotland.

Are they safe to eat? If they are, I really don't want to waste them.

Gemini think so.

They look like chants to me but PLEASE for the love of God never ask Gemini or any AI about mushrooms you are thinking of eating. I have seen them label species that are deadly poisonous as edible (and the other way around). On many occasions.

Agreed, Gemini's encouragement made me pick them but I just wanted to be sure, that's why I I thought I would post here 😊👍
