One plant that is advised not to be eaten in the wild is the green-spored parasols. This is a poisonous mushroom in North America. Even when these mushrooms are young, they are similar to the white button mushrooms we see on pizza, salads, and at the market.
Then, there's the prized morel mushroom, which has an evil twin in the poisonous "false morel"; so are the delicious chanterelles, which look a lot like poisonous jack-o'-lantern mushrooms. So, be careful and don't eat mushrooms you find growing in the wild.

Poison ivy can resemble other harmless vines. This plant produces urushiol oil which is known to irritate the skin. If someone touches it, it can get a terrible rash and even blisters for a time that lasts quite a while. Furthermore, after exposure, people can become allergic.
3. Horse Nettle
Who doesn't love plump cherry tomatoes? However, if someone see one growing in a thicket while climbing, don't pull it out and eat it because it can be very dangerous if eaten. Horse nettle is one of them.
Nettle fruit is usually yellow or green in color, and is shaped like a cherry tomato. If someone puts this fruit in their mouth, people can feel stomach pain and difficulty breathing.
