As long as there is no green fuzz growing on it, they will be fine.

Don't eat them raw though... The texture will be ALL wrong!

Drop them in a dish of cold water for a few min's to plump them back up, slice, saute.

If you wanted to you could slice them VERY THIN and dry them. I do this with old shrooms and then break them into small pieces and soak them in white balsamic vinigar for Mushroom Vinager to use in salad dressing.

They are FINE!

Don't listen to the people that say they will kill you or whatever... They are paranoid!

As long as they haven't picked up any new "Friends" and are mold free, they are 100% edible!

No.

As long as they are not moldy. They should be ok, but not as good as fresh.

Would you really want to ?

yes it will be perfectly ok to eat them.

You really should'nt eat them. If you REALLY want to eat them they should'nt be moldy.

Yes, they are fine as long as they aren't moldy or slimey. After all, you can buy dried mushrooms anyway. You can either rehydrate them or just toss them in whatever dish you are cooking.
