Wonderful, are they not.

I've never heard of the Devil ones and they're actually pretty scary looking. I like the close ups of the Bleeding Tooth one - it looks like some sort of utterly decadant raspberry dessert. The Ghost one must have been the inspiration for the luminous plants in the first Avatar film.

How very random of you !

-Werewolf foot or a zombie foot.
-Reminds me of this. https://www.nasa.gov/jpl/nustar/B1509-pia17566/
-Cherry cheescake.
-Lettuce. (After looking at all of them:..Out of the bunch it is the most non shocking''normalish'' looking...)
-Tangerine and honey dew from insects.
-Fetus in the womb. Or some alien like from those movies. Last one reminds of tentacles(octupus). The one before..idk..creeps me out.
-Shredded coconut. Fur of a dog.
-Cheetos. Reminded me of this. https://mag.uchicago.edu/science-medicine/neural-network
(Just what came to mind on all the photos.........)

Really interesting collection of photos Nexus. :)

It's a trap. They're so utterly bitter that they're considered inedible.

During the day they look fairly normal. It's only at night that you realize they're glowing.

:O Those are so weird!! Some are really creepy, especially the Dead man's toes. Eww *shudders*
Yeah, I completely agree, but, at the same time, the name is so apt.

White Pore Fungi (Favolaschia Cyathia)

I've had gold tops and blue meanies. But I haven't eaten any of those ones you have posted about.


Me too. Think I've tried it on pizza a few time but that's basically ittt.

And I don't think the pizza guys had these unusual options.
