9 Foods That Look Delicious But Could Potentially Kill You
Mushrooms
Mushrooms are cute and all but they are also as toxic as the can be. If names like the ‘death cap’ and ‘destroying angel’ aren’t dead giveaways, then, maybe the fact that within 6 to 12 hours after consumption you can experience symptoms such as violent abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, will make you pay more attention to what you pick during your next mushroom hunting.
Among the 70-80 species of poisonous fungi, only some of them are actually fatal, but why risk it? If you’re not 100 percent sure that you’re picking edible mushrooms, better leave them where they are. Otherwise, you might end up on a hospital bed or worse.
