TMI, yo.

I think there is actually a setting to make this work.

I have never set anything, so if there is it must be on by default. I am sure that some browsers may not support it, and some ad blockers may prevent it from appearing though

I know the fungi that grow in my front garden are supposedly edible, but they are edible like cardboard.

They won’t make you sick or kill you, and your body will get nutrients from them, but you will not enjoy eating them. They aren’t even hallucinogenic to make up for the disappointment.

I have not tried eating them.

I have a mushroom guide with a whole set of categories: poisonous, deadly poisonous, inedible, edible, good to eat. I imagine the last is subjective but it still feels like they are good distinctions to make.
