BOLETES are pretty much non lethal, avoid any with red underneath...not sure about your last picture. IF you cannot identify the species DO NOT EAT, be 100 percent sure. please. a "clubfoot" can mean anything.

identify species to the LATIN NAME> and check with local mushroom clubID...please!!!!!!!

the most lethal mushrooms in north america taste just fine...then 2-10 days later you have total liver failure....amanita phalloides OR amanita virosa. please check. most mushroom poisoning symptoms that are of the DEADLY kind do happen until 2 - 5 days after eating.

again please go with someone who knows stuff..instead of gill colour , or taste testing!!!! READ PLEASE!!!!!
