Many thanks Yazdi ji and Nalini ji for providing clarity and good thoughts about mushrooms and their edibility. Indeed, it is well-known fact that these mushrooms are relished by all kinds of people, all round the world; and some of them could be well-priced. As a non-vegetarian, am now able to relate to checking for certain aspects, before one decides it to be fit for eating.
Many thanks once again, all. Regards.
