Gathered in Eastern North Carolina. One day I’ll be confident enough in my ID to actually try eating them…😅

Any idea what they might be?

Amanita Jacksonii - (I put it in the title)

They’re supposed to be choice edibles, but the Amanita Genus as some of the most deadly poisonous mushrooms there are and these in particular have plenty of lookalikes.

I know very little about this topic, but is there no way to test mushrooms for poison prior to consumption?
