Don't the poisonous ones specifically taste bitter

IDK. I never ate one. You wanna try it and report back?

The supposed logic here is that the human genes that liked the taste of some toxic plants died out.

It can help in a survival pinch to weed out your options but I wouldn’t rely on it as a guaranteed truth.

I don't think so but they take 48 to 72h to kill you though

The psylocibin containing ones also only make you "see god" for about 6-8h, too. Not a very scientific meme, but funny.

There are extremely poisonous and delicious mushrooms. You can buy them in a grocery store here in Finland. They need to be boiled multiple times, discarding the water, to be safe to eat.
