In France you can take them to a pharmacy and they will be able to determine the mushrooms for you

The local pharmacist in my parent's village died from accidentally eating poisonous mushrooms ☹️

Neat, I didn’t know that was a thing that they offered. Sounds like a good idea to keep people safe from stupid mistakes.

It's very trusting to let a professional from an unrelated profession make life or death decisions for you

It's part of their education, not only what is edible, also what to do/prescribe when mushrooms are ingested that cause malicious symptoms.

So it's most literally part of their profession.
