Ms. Zhu, a resident of Luzhou, Sichuan, bought 'Termitomyces Albuminosus Spawn' online for 9.48 yuan at the end of June. After ten days of cultivation, mushrooms emerged, but upon consuming them, she was rushed to the hospital due to poisoning. The mushrooms she consumed were identified as the poisonous Chlorophyllum molybdites. Experts emphasized that the artificial cultivation of Termitomyces Albuminosus remains a frontier research topic and that no production licenses have been granted nationwide. Consequently, all Termitomyces Albuminosus spawn sold on online shopping platforms are fraudulent and carry a significant risk of poisoning.
