It's pretty uncommon around here, and I've very rarely seen any. Despite its fairly grim appearance, it's edible and delicious.
[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago (1 child) Such a weird name. I can only assume whoever came up with it had no idea how tasty it was. permalink fedilink source hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] banazir@lemmy.ml [S] 1 point 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) It's also called horn of plenty as its Latin name, cornucopioides, implies. I picked the most dramatic sounding name from Wikipedia for effect. I know them as black trumpets. They can also have a really dark coloring, which can make them look uninviting. permalink fedilink source parent
