Health officials warn of poisonous mushrooms being sold in Monterey County
Briefly

"Three individuals were hospitalized after ingesting amanita phalloides or death cap mushrooms purchased from a truck vendor in East Salinas. The patients suffered from severe liver damage due to poisoning."
"Deaths from these mushrooms can occur, but the symptoms often seem to disappear after 24 hours, making home treatment dangerously misleading for individuals who mistakenly consume them."
