I found these pop up in my veggie garden, I reckon they may have come in the soil from the veggies I bought from bunnings and planted.
Anyone know what they might beImage

They look pretty tasty but I've read that there is a very similar looking mushroom that is dangerous

I don't know aussie shrooms, but where I am, there is a most deadly amanita (deadly/destroying angel, or deathcap, Amanita Phalloides/Virosa or other similar variations.) that looks very much like that. Also a couple good edibles, and some bland to unpleasant ones. You NEED a local expert to show you how to ID local mushrooms, and especially to rule out local toxics.

Doesn't look like any mushroom I've eaten before so I don't think I will

In your photo of the gills, those appear to have a bulb (volva) at the base. If so that would make them almost certainly Amanita spp. and most likely toxic, and likely though not necesarrily deadly. :naughty:

Jaymie, a man who makes his name travelling the world in search of new./noteworthy mushies told me that no mushroom known will kill you if you don't swallow it. It might make you high/make you sick/make you see god, rainbows, unicorns/make you wish you were dead, but the fatal toxins apparently need to be swallowed. For heavens's sake don't take my word for this, I could be proven wrong someday, but it does supplement your statement. Also, I have now tasted quite a few varieties that i would not have before, and can state that if someone else hasn't already told you that any given mushroom tastes good, it probably doesn't!
