Are These Edible?

Hey guys, me and a friend were out mushroom hunting today and although we didnt find any magic mushrooms, we found some kind of Bolete in a pine forest. Im about 90% sure they are edible. Can any mushroom experts confirm if these are the edible kind? I was thinking maybe Boletus edulis or Boletus pinophilus?

I can tell you that there are no serious poison mushroom with pores and the typical Boletus habitus and all the species that would give your stomach a hard time also taste very bitter Therefore you would simply not eat enough of them to get any negative effects. You can always take a small piece of the mushroom, put it in your mouth to taste for bitterness and then spit it out. If there is no bitter taste, you should be fine.

However you should always be sure, what you are collecting and eating. I guess B. pinophilus should be right. I have never seen it in natura, so no guarantee.

Cool, I read a guide for Boletes and thats what I was thinking. They definitly do not taste bitter. Good to hear some affirmation, these should go well with dinner.

I don't know anything about it if its not from Europe

If it is then I would definitely eat it.
