Are wild mushrooms safe?

[firefli]

Bought some wild mushrooms today at the Berwick food festival, so should be a reliable source, but still at bit worried over whether they're safe to eat. Dh thinks I'm being silly. Should I avoid, or do I need a slap to stop worrying about everything I eat when I'm pregnant?

Well, if they were poisonous the risk would have nothing to do with your being pregnant!

They are safe, no-one is going to be selling the wrong mushrooms commercially.

I would be wary - but not because you are pregnant! I love mushrooms but had a nasty reaction to some ought from a supermarket once and ended up in A&E looking like a blistered lobster.
