Right. I have had Chantrelle from trees that gave them a different flavor for sure. I thought it was a safety warning. Mt Hood is in my backyard. There is a bunch of forests starting a mile away from here at home. It is also why fire danger is REAL too.

I also found this online - Chicken of the woods growing on pine should be avoided at all costs as these are coniferous (not deciduous) trees that contain toxins that can become absorbed by the fungi, causing serious gastric upset in humans.

I found some today on a rotting pine and it was really pail looking. I didn’t pick it.

The spores or the mushroom type should matter more than the host…shouldn’t it?

absolutely when I was active hunting mushrooms I carried several small sheets of black and white papers just for that

not really different species of trees have different types of enzymes. ever notice why the only thing that grows under a pine tree is Amanita Muscaria . not edible.
