i think they are mildly toxic but probably not deadly in most cases, and certainly not edible. the majority of mushrooms are not poisonous, but most of them taste like crap. then you have the good ones like the common horse/cow dung edibles and boletus, which grow in symbiosis with pine trees usually right alongside the druggy red/orange/yellow and white spotty ... what are they called? amanitas, you can die from eating those raw but if they are cooked well you just have a trip, and then there is all the nice and medicinal ones like lions mane and those ones that grow on rotted tree stumps that are antibiotic/immune boosting (reishi? shiitake) and others.
