Isn't chicken of the woods edible?
Not all the time. I think it is edible from late autumn.
I have never tried it, but keep intending to as a lot grows down here.
But like chicken, it is the sauce that is interesting, not the chicken.
Am I the only person who finds fungus a little nausea inducing? (Not all - just the big tree growing ones).
Yes. My sister's first husband did his PhD about some fungi.
