While cutting the grass over near Gowganda Lake Camp I viewed large Rubermaid containers filled with something redish, not going over to be a busy body I didn't find out what they were. Mentioned this to a friend who went and asked the camp owner what was going on, they said the people staying in the cabin were picking Lobster mushrooms. Never heard of them before so looked them up here, wouldn't you know the next ATV trip out piles of Lobster mushrooms. Bought them home, cleaned them up, fried in peanut oil some salt and pepper and voila good tasting wild mushrooms. Since that trip I have seen them all over the place and they are easily found by their lobster like colour. For those around Gowganda while picking blueberries and rasberries enjoy some Lobster mushrooms with your next steak or whatever.

Very interesting and informative Bill,...was the taste strong?
Just the opposite very tasty, and I didn't notice the taste they mention in the article. By the way they use the colour for dyeing wool, etc.
