Little do you know they are litterally the worst possible thing to eat ever.

But,

If you got a crock pot you can just do the old trick of – – using dross as filler.

As with most mushrooms, it is good to have pleanty offhand if you dont feel like wasting something good in order to make a a fancy something something.

The most simple and effective advice I can give about these is that they are perfect for creating meatballs, which, early on,, They rock.
‘specially for wimpy-dumb-strong guy

Pros: I don’t know what you were expecting from brightly colored things from mother nature

Cons:

• Its Poison, like,, to paraphrase the wiki for this : ” You could drop these around and make NPCs eat them, taking away thier health. “.
  Now – I’m not 100% about this because im too much of a coward to attempt to come near bunny people, BUT, Seems to me like you could shove them in thier mouths and kill your fluffy friends in the most painful and indirect way possible.
• Near useless

Rough rubish recipe for meatballs:

[Mushroom]
[Morsel]*

Probably will only take ONE monster meat, too much of it would probably result in monster lasagna*

All projection aside though.
And pent up emotions,,

The green caps are especially good for keeping your head on straight in a pinch

coming across these can be like a light at the end of the tunnel and your chance to turn the tide of a battle gone wrong [ contain urge to talk about hijinks and the folly of man ]

From my own experiance , a tbh if you will, If you plan on sticking around those tentacle infested areas <were these things are most common in>, it IS quite possible to survive off these,, if you like fighting off everything and anything at all times,,

What will you risk?
<infinate health>

-Fishmen-
-Tentacles-
-Always fighting-
-The mental toll you will have to take dealing with all this garbage-

Pros:

• ITS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ MEDICINE
• Nearly non-existant negative effects.
• Even if you do go insane with these, you can still have a chance to combat the night terrors by healing yourself more.
• Stockpiles of these can save lifes.

Cons:

• Reducing sanity and gaining health encourages cycle in which faster nightmare creatures come and ruin all your fun if you’re not careful
• Uh . . .
