My friend forages for porcini mushrooms out near Tahoe. I thankfully don't like mushrooms, so he's not offended when I decline, but idgaf how good he is at finding them, it only takes 1 fuckup and you're dead. He says there's no mushrooms that look like it and as long as you only look for that one, you'll be fine. Frankly imo mushrooms are nasty as hell even when you get the kind you know won't kill you at the store. I have no desire to risk my life to eat wild fungus.
