I don't remember where I saw this, but I kept it for just such a moment.

This post hits differently here in Australia.

We recently had a woman convicted of three counts of murder and one count of attempted murder.

She invited her ex-husband's family to lunch, and served them Beef Wellington.

The special ingredient was death cap mushrooms.

@davidtheeviloverlord
Maybe she was foraging and wanted to know which mushrooms were safe to eat? ;P They say, give some to your friend, and if he's still around, they are safe.
Reminds me of the *not in print now* book, Death Work, where one inmate on death row was a female, who poisoned her family with mashed potatoes but she lived, because she had built up a tolerance first
@Rasta Not in Australia mate look up mushroom poisoning in Victoria
@sarpau I'm not sure mushrooms were mentioned but they are getting a lot of discussion?
@Rasta Sorry I did not give you enough info, here in Australia a woman poisoned Three people with a beef wellington using death cap mushrooms😏
@sarpau I gathered she must have had a connection to the type of meal. Our North American Psychopaths prefer mashed potatoes
