Morel mushrooms and alcohol beware
fishercat:
Just a heads up for you folks that consume morel mushrooms.
Several weeks ago I had my first batch of morel mushrooms. On the same night I also had three or four beers. Within about three hours severe nausea and diarrhea.
Sidenote I have consumed morals in the past with no problems.
Well the same thing happened last night. Consumed a very small amount of moral mushrooms. And two or three beers. Three hours later same thing.
Look up on the Internet and find the information provided below.
Morel mushrooms are sought after for their earthy taste and meaty texture. But like many varieties of mushroom, morels can cause allergic reactions or stomach upset for some people, especially if the mushrooms are undercooked or eaten raw [sources: Cascio and Johnson, MDCH]. Even those who are normally able to enjoy morels without any ill effects may find that consuming them with alcohol causes nausea or vomiting. Stranger still, a trouble-free experience with morels and alcohol in the past doesn't necessarily mean that you won't have an adverse reaction in the future.

Wow! That is weird! Never heard that before. I can’t attest that it never happens with white button mushrooms..good to know if I ever can find any Morels!

So alcohol and fungus don't mix? Ya learn something new every day.
I do know a guy that loved morels. One day he ate so many he got sick. To this day he can no longer eat them.

Also the less popular inky beard, can be toxic when consumed with alcohol in the system, any alcohol within 3 days even.
