Some gigantic mushrooms I found. Oh, yeah that's my size fifteen foot for reference so you can tell how big they are.

Just being a nerd here and trying to ID these from the single pic ... Probably the Parasol Mushroom (Macrolepiota procera), but I wouldn't rule out Chlorphylum molybdites ... the two species are two variable and too similar to distinguish from one picture.
I can't recommend eating them. M. procera is pretty tasty, although a lot of people have idosyncratic allergic reactions. C. molybdites, on the other hand, is poisonous, and a really, really unpleasant way to spend a weekend.
