When I first went I just chucked stuff in a back pack and that was it
In that case, just eat any mushrooms you see on the way, and get the feel of what to eat next time. No need to ask questions on a forum.rioja routard said:When I first went I just chucked stuff in a back pack and that was it and since then get a feel of what to take

However, there's nothing like learning from the experience of others. That's why I want to know what your "stuff" consisted of and what "stuff" you would take next time.
Google turned up:
Psychedelic mushrooms 2.52 Million results
Magic Mushrooms 3.34 Million results
Backpack recommendation Camino Santiago only 2,570 results
So this is a great forum for good information that is not as easy to obtain as is mushrooms.
I would rather the moderators be a little "over zealous", than see a brilliant forum disintegrate to the level of the multitude of "anything goes" type forums.

alipilgrim said:it is not a good idea to encourage 'picking' of any kind. Too many farmers along the path rely on their produce to have pilgrims picking cherries, mushrooms, salads, etc etc. And unless one is very very knowledge about mushrooms, picking wild can be very dangerous. Support the local economy and buy in stores and restaurants!

Is this the usual rule in Spain?sillydoll said:Just one comment - there are usually signs everywhere warning you NOT to touch the produce. Store keepers get really annoyed if you handle their fruit or vegetables.
Yes... it is not normal. Usually you see, in addition to the plastic bags to put the fruits in, a stand with plastic gloves that you are supposed to put on before choosing your fruits/vegetables. Personally I normally do not use the gloves, but keep the "touching" to a minimum.colinPeter said:Is this the usual rule in Spain?sillydoll said:Just one comment - there are usually signs everywhere warning you NOT to touch the produce.

We would normally "feel" fruit/veges before we purchase, is this a "no no"?
Actually quite common in Australia. Might be a bit of a convict thing, sort of thing we were sent out here for in the first place. And very common to see people eat small things like grapes or cherries (just one),sort of try the green grapes, then the red and buy the best tasting.Br.
