Beefsteak

Beef Steak fungus
Fistulina hepatica is another
edible species that looks exactly like beef even to the red droplets of spores
that look like blood, however it certainly does not taste like beef. One amazing
fact about this fungi is that it causes red rot and in the early stages gives
rise to brown oak, a very valuable staining that quadruples the value of that
timber.
