I just think bioluminescence is cool. Didn't know it was an old wives tale for edibility.
I knew about the Jack-O-Lantern because I had a friend who would so often hunt for chanterelles. Some of the stuff he'd sauté with butter was pretty weird looking, I'll admit! He was an amateur-- stubborn too, and we always watched him in case he needed to go to the hospital!
I would rather hunt for a Destroying Angel just to see it in all it's delicate and destructive power! Moohoohwahahaha!
I just met my boyfriends parents last week and they are avid and enthusiastic morel hunters. I thought it was endearing.
