– from button point to adulthood – rather than taste any mushroom which may remotely be comparable.
Don't taste any mushroom unless you're pretty certain you have approximated its individuality and it belongs to a genus that retains no species proven to be deadly poisonous.
For example, you know that you're carrying a bolete, and you wonder if it may be a tylopilus; a sensible situation. But don’t think or say: "What is this?
I don't have any idea. I believe I will taste it."

In case you've tasted lactarius piperatus, tylopilus felleus or some other excruciatingly acrid or sour mushroom, then be well prepared to regret the experience. Don't kiss anybody for many hours later!
