The young one looks like two thirds of a snooker ball. With crusty white bits.

Toxic by some definitions of the word, however I'd prefer to describe them as Psychoactive. Fry one cap in butter for a delicious toast topping and a light alcohol-like intoxication. Eat a few more for deliriant-hallucinogenic effects. They are not believed to cause death except possibly in excessive consumption by the very old, young or ill, however many books still report them to be lethal.
How luscious they look! Unfortunately toxic
