Man on
Horseback
Tricholoma flavovirens |
Man on Horseback can be found scattered or in large
groups under pine trees in sandy areas in autumn.
It is considered a very good edible mushroom by many 'schroom
hunters. There are a few mushrooms that are
similar, but the MoH is easily identified from them.
Warning:
There are many reports of
poisoning in Europe where the MoH is a highly sought an
eaten mushroom. The poisoning causes myoglobin to
leak out of the muscles and into the blood. This
iron containing pigment can then lead to kidney failure
if untreated. Symptoms include muscle weakness,
heavy sweating, and nausea.
However, there is a question as to whether the European
MoH (Tricholoma
equestre)
is the same as the North American MoH (Tricholoma
flavovirens) since
there have been no reports of poisoning in the U.S.
It is also noted that
every case of MoH poisoning came after eating MoH
consecutively over several meals.
Whatever, the option of
eating MoH is yours.
