Walking half way across a field thinking you've found a giant puffball but it's a football or plastic bag instead is starting to get to me 😂

Imagine going on a walk and seeing a guy in a field petting giant mushrooms

[fitlentagreelin]

The gentle "thunk" of you patting these mammoth mushrooms is such a satisfying noise!

[Perfection-ish]

Watched multiple times for the shroom pats. Definitely one of the most well behaved mushroom types

The mushroom headpats are incredibly soothing.

[arthurfrost]

Remember to pat your mushroom often so it doesn't get sad

Finally found out what those brown smoke filled puffy things were that I used to find on my church field as a child.

We found one in minnisota and cooked it with garlic and butter over a camp fire. one of the most succulent things I’ve eaten.

The patting made me chuckle 😂 like letting us know "good mushroom, good mushroom" 😂.

I really like the constant pompompompomming of the puffies x) lovely sound!

I live in France and when I was a kid there used to be a lot in our garden. My mom would pick them up. She would slice them, dip them in egg yolk, then in breadcrumbs, and grill them in a pan.

It was really good and the texture was crunchy outside and soft inside

That there are no dangerous lookalikes is a very good thing to include. A lot of the time I hear about foraging mushrooms they don't talk about those if they exist, and it scares me away from the concept because anxiety. But this one looks like a pretty cut and dry situation

Never thought I would find happiness in watching a guy pet mushrooms.

They taste kind of like a pancake or crepe if you simmer them in butter. I was so excited when I found my first one.

Important to know that some dangerous mushrooms have a bulb phase (kinda like an egg) where they look like small puffballs while young. The only way to tell is to open it up and make sure that the flesh is all white and there aren’t any structures inside. There are some VERY dangerous mushrooms that start off like this such as the destroying angel. You never have to worry for a giant puffball, but for the small ones you absolutely do.

The “pat pat pat”s are super satisfying and adorable.

Bro's just straight up spanking mushrooms out in the wild
