question 18
what causes most foodborne illnesses associated with wild mushrooms?
being stored for too long after being harvested
being mistaken for edible ones when harvested
not being stored at the correct temperature
not being cooked at the correct temperature

Explanation:

Wild mushrooms can be toxic. The main cause of foodborne illness from wild mushrooms is misidentification. People may pick and consume poisonous mushrooms thinking they are edible. Storage duration (too long after harvest), incorrect storage temperature, or incorrect cooking temperature are not the primary causes compared to mis - identification.

Answer:

Being mistaken for edible ones when harvested.
