Amazon is definitely the one behind this. This is all part of their “vertical integration” bullshit I bet. They’ve been taking tons of money off the top for years. Where to go besides taking 100% of the money?
I’m not a forager in any sense, but my understanding is that if you want to forage for wild mushrooms, you have to work directly with someone who is already experienced, and not just read books - even if those books are legitimate.
Don’t fuck with mushrooms.
Step 1) Buy the book
Step 2) Sue the Amazon seller claiming you almost died
Step 3) Seller is forced to take down the book
Step 4) Profit
Step 1) be experience mushroom forager
Step 2) buy book and find entry for unpleasant but not lethal mushroom
Step 3) eat small sample and drive immediately to the hospital
Step 4) sue Amazon and publisher for cost of medical treatment and emotional damages
