Sorbian grandmothers examine giant mushroom...

I'm sure it's safe to eat
Surprise in the garden…

Katyržinka: It wasn’t here yesterday.

Zusana: Looks like it just mushroomed.

Katyržinka: Maybe that’s why they’re called mushrooms.

Zusana: Do you think it’s edible?

Katyržinka: You mean, not poisonous? Well, you could try it and see.

Zusana: Like last time when I went blind for six hours? Not this time.

Voice-over

They do come up quickly. And Europeans seem adventurous in trying new mushroom dishes. Local lore does not always protect.
