Found a bunch of old shrooms. are they good?

I just found a few bags of shrooms in a drawer. they were dried with a dehydrator. i'm thinking it was probably about a year ago. they are in zip-lock bags. there's still a faint fungus smell to them. I'm wondering if they are good, or if I should throw them out? Could they be dangerous? I don't want to eat some, and have a bad trip thinking I poisoned myself... or will they not do anything? Hate to throw them out. No clue how I forgot about so many shrooms. that's a sin.

I'd eat them, can't be dangerous for you too just a bummer if you don't trip. I've had shrooms I held on the for about 7 months waiting for the right time to trip and when I ate them they worked.

everyone is saying they are fine including google. so it's time to munch.

If you are just asking about the age of your shooms of known origin, then the age of them is not a problem. Do you know where these came from? Is there any chance they are wild picked? These are literally life and death questions.

Good point - you should be SURE that they are what you presume them to be - beyond that, you might consider pinching the very base off and throwing that away if you think they are wild but you know they are what you think. I have recently read of cases where people get salmonella from the cow dung that clings to the base.

As far as age goes - if you believe that they have not gotten wet and then redried then you are fine. Mushrooms that are poorly dried or re-dried have the possibility of having hosted several varieties of bacteria that produce toxins that will not kill you but can cause stomach distress.
