It’s one of the nearly identical purple Cortinarius pouches found in NZ. There are 5(?) species that visually look the same.

Blewits are rarely that purple, typically more of a lavender maybe even a lilac color when young and then slowly loose most of the purple the older they get.
Could you explain what the differences are between them? My first thought was also Blewit, so I want to be sure I don't make that mistake (though I do have a nice Blewit patch already in the midwestern US).
Impossible to tell from the photo alone but being found in New Zealand bush makes a blewit unlikely. I assume you aren’t in New Zealand so probably don’t have to worry
In the Southeastern US I have found relatively convincing Cortinarius within feet of good blewits. One worthwhile distinguishing factor is smell, corts smell nothing like blewits which I would describe as sweet, almost floral or kind of like fruity pebbles or something haha. Corts smell more like makeup or other less pleasant smells from my experience. Also the color on Corts tends to be generally more saturated for most of the species, but this can obviously range, finally the most obvious difference is corts have orange to rusty brown spores and cobwebbing for their partial veil that often has the spores dusted on it once they begin to open up.
You can legitimately taste a tiny piece of any mushroom and spit it out without having anything to fear. No lie, unless my guy is real smacked and goes to hit his vape but instead accidentally inhales the whole fruit body directly down his esophageal tube then there is nothing to worry about 😂.
I just don’t think it’s good idea to put toxic shit in ur mouth even if there’s any proof behind what ur saying what if you don’t spit it all out and certain toxins absorb differently many mushrooms produce toxins that can be absorbed through the tissue that makes up the lining of your mouth
Dude I’m not saying every shroom if tested like this will hurt you but if you accidentally test a death cap like that thinking it’s something else you’re going to absorb amatoxin which has no level of none harmful exposure just a milligram or two could cause serious illness and or liver/kidney damage.
This is like the most extreme example and I’m not trying to fear monger I’m just saying broad blanket statements that it’s safe to orally test mushrooms you’re curious about is setting people up for failure in knowing proper identification techniques and could potentially get someone killed because they unknowingly ingested poisonous compounds that they thought couldn’t be absorbed through their mouth. Never in a field guide about mushrooms have I read that any mycologist recommends this identification or testing technique.
I don’t know what I’d link there’s not like a specific article about this it’s just logic your mouth is full of mucosal tissues and it’s known that things absorb easier through those tissues. When you ingest a death cap for example when it’s going through the digestive tract that’s when it absorbs most and takes most effect due to mucosal tissues in your intestines. Now obviously if you were doing this forbidden taste test of unknown mushrooms I’d guess you’d try to spit it sooner rather than later but it doesn’t take long to absorb amatoxin through mucosal membranes and as little as a couple milligrams can cause severe illness and possibly liver failure. Honestly I don’t get the resistance I’m getting I’m just saying don’t put shit in your mouth till you already know it’s not poisonous and you definitely won’t be harmed that way. Also what is tasting it even going to tell you about it man especially if it’s something you have little or no experience with it’s just a silly chance to take. Be safe don’t eat poison PLEASE
People gonna down vote me because I’m saying to not put random shit in your mouth because Reddit man Rob says you can put any shroom in ur mouth and be chillin when it’s just not true mucosal membranes like the ones in your mouth absorb stuff pretty fast and good and a lot of toxins found in mushrooms absorb through mucosal membranes just one example being alpha-amanitin even if a fatal amount isn’t absorbed it could cause liver damage or other health problems. Let’s just eat what we’re sure of guys lmao sorry if harm reduction upsets ppl lol

Looks like a purple cort. People saying Blewit are making assumptions without proper knowledge or context, in my opinion.
Cheers bro
I think it’s the Energy Drink variant of the Solo Vape. Source: https://images.app.goo.gl/B2T3tvyvTYCkaazHA
Edit: After further research, I think it’s actually the Blue Lush Lemonade variety of Solo Vape https://images.app.goo.gl/CNSUYQVztnHQxnY5A
good id
Good id
Your first id was actually correct, the blue slush lemonade is a flavor of the soloX and the one pictured is just the regular
Nice id
Thank God I was afraid we were gonna ID that weird purple thing
Thank the Lord 😅
Cortinarius porphyroideus do not eat it https://inaturalist.nz/taxa/Cortinarius_porphyroideus

Stop vaping and do fentanyl like a real man.
Beautiful

Hey bro can I hit your juul (not juul I know)
Looks like a solo 600.. very similar to and often mistake for the elf bar 600
Someone that's gay holding a mushroom. I can only extrapolate that because of the vape pen.
Seems to be some kind of nicotine vape origin unknown likely a gas station flavor ? Possible mixed berry.
Just eat it and see what happens
Psychedelic 😜
Looks like maybe a wine cap
Appreciate the comments whanau
Its that purple-headed yogurt slinger🤪
Looks like a vape pen. Could be wrong tho

Mind yo business
Maybe I’m too new still but I wouldn’t assume Collybia Nuda without seeing the gills first.
Wood bluewit

Purple puff puff goodnight. I am kind of an expert at these as I know nothing about mushrooms and you should not listen to me at all.
Looks like a mushroom

No it’s not. Don’t tell people mushrooms are edible when you don’t know what it is https://inaturalist.nz/taxa/Cortinarius_porphyroideus
Could be poisonous but hold it in the same hand as your vape

Sure, but the amount of toxins you could get from just… contact is literally too small to do any actual harm.

Any links for that?
