Almost definitely puffballs, one of my favorite mushrooms to forage. Though I’ve never had ones this big and I hear they lose a bit of flavor if they’re giant.

If you cut a *(vertical) cross section and it’s a uniform texture with nothing that looks like the structure of a classic capped mushroom that should rule out any lookalikes. Should still be good if the inside is white and not starting to turn brown.

Trusting a stranger on a random web forum is not recommended when it comes to eating mushrooms you find outside. Even if they’re right

Easy to check against another source. This is one of the easiest to ID mushrooms that people eat.

Yeah, but still. I don’t want to normalize casually taking recommendations about eating wild mushrooms online.

We used to prepare and eat these back home. They’re a bit like eggplant. My dad would sometimes hop out of the car on his commute home from work and grab these off the side of the road.

I’m not convinced that isn’t just a tiny water bottle.
