Seems to be a real problem among Asian immigrants. I think I read that there are no poisonous mushrooms in Asia or something.
The problem Asians have is they confuse their edible straw-paddy mushroom with our death cap mushroom.
Asia has poisonus mushrooms.
The local TV stations would broadcast warnings around the clock and the following week the news would always be about the people who killed themselves eating the mushrooms.
I think we should air stories about 72 virgins waiting for those who eat the suckers.
