#8 delicious chicken of the woods mushroom! Very easy to identify, no lookalikes. Chop it up and fry. It takes EXACTLY like chicken fingers. Really. I hunt it every summer/fall.

Cyrus,

Chanterelle and the Jack-O-Lantern mushrooms are lookalikes. The Jack-o-
Lantern is poisonous.

#1 It's called a Planter's chair. Common in the south.
#10 Most likely a counterfeit. At the Chinese market in Kuala Lumpur you can buy Louis Vuiton and Chanel purses all day for $US25. High quality Rolex fakes for $US20.
