  They’re like a real life version of Willy Wonka’s edible buttercups

    Is it edible?

      I just looked it up because the joke answer, while perfect, isn’t very useful to a genuine question.

      Apparently it is safe to eat, but lacks any significant flavor, so it isn’t eaten much.

      Edible, but not really worth it. I imagine if you had enough you could candy them.

  I don’t really get why they called it “helvelloides” it doesn’t really look like an elfin saddle (genus Helvella) to me.
