"Lactarius torminosus, Woolly Coral Cap

Pretty, pink, and lacy on the outside but inside hot and bitter; cows may safely graze but in humans it can cause colic and dysentery except, it seems, in Finland, where it is sold commercially."

In publication, Page 40: "Reflections on the Fungaloids" by B.L. Williamson, Ottawa, 1992. ISBN 1-894572-65-3
