edibility of leucoagaricus naucinus (lepiota naucina)

[Steven Carpenter]

I get an upset stomach from this, as well as does my father.  My wife
eats it with gusto.  It is tasty, though one to recommend as "try a
little bit and wait a day" before having more.  In addition, be absolutely
sure not to confuse anything in-hand with a white Amanita!!
