Ahh, well back as a poor student I almost subsisted on mushrooms at some
times of the year.
I also found that being able to feed wild mushrooms to girls was a really
good asset to have!
Seriously, though, Pholiota squarrosa is so abundant in some areas that it
would be useful to know if it can be an enjoyable mushroom to eat. I could
almost guarantee finding it in Nottingham on any foray.
