Flippant answer: Yes, eat some and find out.
Correct answer: No, it can be very difficult. Never eat a mushroom if you are unsure of its identity. In fact, don't eat things you have not identified without the help of an experienced mushroom collector.
Mushroom poisoning can be prevented by only consuming mushrooms that have been correctly identified as safe to eat by an expert mycologist or through reputable sources. It is essential to never consume wild mushrooms that you are unsure of, as many poisonous species resemble edible ones. Educating yourself on the different types of toxic mushrooms and their characteristics can also help prevent accidental ingestion.
It can be difficult to differentiate between poisonous and non-poisonous mushrooms. To be safe, it is recommended to avoid eating wild mushrooms unless you are an expert in identifying them. Poisonous mushrooms can have distinct characteristics such as colorful caps, spores, or a foul odor, but the best way to be sure is to consult a mycologist or expert for proper identification.
Dogs cannot reliably tell if a mushroom is poisonous or not just by looking at it. It is not safe to assume that a dog can distinguish between safe and toxic mushrooms. It's best to prevent dogs from eating any wild mushrooms.
yes, but it can be all kinds of different colors, i saw a purple mushroom and found out that it was dead! You can really never tell if a mushroom is deadly. If it looks really wierd just dont touch it.
There are many that are poisonous and many of them look almost identical to the non-poisonous ones. Do not under any circumstances eat any wild mushrooms unless you consult an expert. Making a mistake could be fatal. Some of the more famous (and most deadly) poisonous mushrooms include the destroying angel (three types of Amanita), the death cap (Amanita phalloides), and the lethal webcaps (two species of Cortinarius).
You have to test its chemical composition. Simply looking at a mushroom, unless previously identified as poisonous or non-poisonous, cannot determine how it will affect you.

Be VERY careful when eating wild mushrooms. Poisonous and edible sometimes look so much alike that experts can make mistakes.
To determine if a mushroom is poisonous, look for warning signs such as a strong odor, bright colors, or unusual shapes. It is safest to avoid eating wild mushrooms unless you are an expert in mushroom identification. If unsure, consult a professional mycologist or use a field guide for accurate identification.

The most reliable way to tell is to go with someone with expert knowledge. You can use reference books but since "good" and "bad" mushrooms may be hard to tell apart, a person who knows is best. You can learn from that person and become knowledgeable yourself.
Some mushrooms are edible; many are not. It is best to have an expert in identifying edible mushrooms with you. Or just buy it from the store, but even then becareful if they are collected from the wild and not cultivated.

According to a recent study conducted at the Zimbabwe National Institute of Fungal Behavior, a large majority of the mushroom species found on Earth are quite harmful to the human organism. The study was conducted thusly: a large, rebellious army of Zimbabwan terrorists viciously invaded a neighboring village and proceeded to kidnap innocent women and children and force to consume indefinite amounts of poisonous mushrooms. This is actually Zimbabwe's national sport. The villagers were proud to die for the glory of their country.
A greasy, buff to ochre tan cap and clay brown gills on a basally enlarged, white stem tell that a mushroom that grows singly or in groups around clearings, on lawnsor under trees from September to November may be a poison pie (Hebeloma crustuliniforme).Specifically, the mushroom's cap measures 1-1/4 to 4-1/2 inches (3 to 11 centimeters) across. The stem measures 1-1/2 to 5 inches (40 to 130 millimeters). This poisonous mushroom drops water from the gills when moistened, has almond-shaped spores, smells like radishes and tastes bitter.
