Oh my fucking god

It looks just like the edible white button mushroom

I had heard stories from my parents about people foraging for mushrooms in "the old country" (the Soviet Union), villagers from their province sometimes supplemented dwindling supplies with wild forest mushrooms.

They said they were invited multiple times to go on mushroom hunts but were afraid of traversing the forests after dusk, and they were glad they refused, because one large family served mushroom soup, and the menti (police/milita) found them all dead.

Parents, grandparents, children, an entire family generation wiped out by mushroom soup, all dead in their chairs in the dining room.
