Not yet but I probably will at some point. Wild oysters are better than cultivated so maybe these will be too.
Though with oysters the wild ones I’m eating are probably a different species than the cultivated. Someone sequenced a grocery store oyster for fun and it turned out to be something close to Pleurotus floridanus while the ones we have in the PNW are usually P. pulmonarius or sometimes P. ostreatus.

- Comment on Saw these last week in Chicago, no idea what they are 2 months ago:
Mica caps are a type of inky cap, Coprinellus and Coprinopsis are close relatives and both can turn to ink. They only have the sparkly particles when they’re fresh, these are starting to turn to ink so it’s not surprising they don’t have it. Coprinopsis atramenteria is usually larger and duller-colored.
