I picked a similar looking mushroom once and left it out on the porch for a little while, only to come back and see it absolutely riddled with little worms crawling out of the underside of the cap.
Absolutely traumatized me against wild mushrooms lol
Glad to see none of those look like they have little worm tunnels through them.
We made sure to check them all pretty thoroughly. There were a few wormy ones in the pile and a ton of wormy ones we avoided picking.
