@theforagerscottage: When was the last time you found Chicken of The Woods? 🐓 #foraging #wildfood #slowliving #cottagecore #mushroomforaging

ziggy :

its a bit dangerous to say it hasn't got any dangerous look alikes, some people have mistaken jack o lantern mushrooms for chicken of the woods. the best way to tell the difference is jack o lantern has gills not spores.

HillbillyJ :

No a Morel Mushroom is the chicken of the woods. They're called Hickory chickens, and they're the best Mushroom you can eat

Tibermae :

It looks like a painting

Steve Peters :

I am so sick of everything being iconic

My girlfriend cooked COW into tacos. At first, I didn’t quite enjoy it but now I am craving the meaty texture that’s difficult to imitate.

greenbeetle :

I bet that mushroom is blushing hearing the compliments
