One of the most common and most easily identifiable mushroom is the chanterelle. Dried out, damaged ones sell for $25-$28 at high end grocery stores like Whole Foods and Wegman's. However, here in the woods behind our house they are considerably better looking and cheaper. Pick them a few days after a big summer rain and they will be succulent and bright. Eventually they will dry out and crack and fall apart. That's they way they look in the store.
