As rainy season comes, a variety of wild mushrooms appear on Kunming's markets. Kunming Consumer's Association pointed out that better have only one variety of wild mushrooms every time to protect eaters from food poisoning.
When picking or purchasing wild mushrooms, residents should know that poisonous mushrooms often have bright colors, volvas and collariums which are long and fragile. The flavors are also strange, such as acerbic, pungent or stinking. Don't choose the wild mushrooms which you are not familiar with.
Better have only one variety of wild mushrooms and don''t eat too much every time. Don't eat successively. Above all, don't drink alcohol when eating wild mushrooms, in case poison and alcohol might react. (Editors: Annie Kwok, Minnie Mao)
