I don't have the confidence to eat those in the wild, there are not that many that are deadly here, but your first mistake is probably your last. I have found though that fungi don't necessarily come up in the same quantities every year, I have visited sites this year that had large spreads of fungi last year, this year nothing. Must get some batteries for my fungi detector.
