Also called 'strawberries and cream'. It is a tooth fungi. That guttates a redish fluid. The fluid come out from the top. The teeth are underneath. It's a pretty nifty find, but it's not edible, too tough/ fibrous.

You can eat it and digest it without injuries but it tastes bitter as hell. Iirc it only looks like this when it is immature and when full grown it turns brown and flat
