Nowhere in the article does it even mention the mushroom. WTH?

whoa...

The comment section for that article is a bunch of WTH too.

As for the 'shroom, it's apparently only slightly outside the normal range for size and weight of that species. Go fig.

Duuuuuude, shrooooooms.

I agree with KJP. The comments under that article are pathetic.

Wowsers... I knew they got big, but I've never seen one that size! You wouldn't need a steak to go with that, you could just slice off a nice inch thick piece and saute it.

I wonder if the commenter who worries about killing the "parent of trillions of new puffballs" refuses to eat fruit because it has seeds? I highly recommend that he eat plenty of the abounding fly agarics (amanita muscaria) instead.

So size matters?
