Brush off the leaves and dirt, this edible blue monster is considered a very tasty mushroom. Depending on the tree it is associated with or the soil it's in, the flavor can be mild, sweet or nutty with a slightly peppery finish. The bonus is when it's cut open it oozes blue milk -- commonly called "latex" by mycologists. Mmmm you heard that right: Oozes. Blue. Latex.
