I enjoy eating these mushrooms, too! I know them as Shaggy Mane mushrooms. It's amazing how they can push through hard gravel roads. They seem so delicate once they are larger. I recently learned that David Aurora, the author of two of the best mushroom books around (Mushrooms Demystified, and All That The Rain Promises And More) eats the old, black ink, too! I'm looking forward to trying that myself. Enjoy your mushrooms!
