Years ago I've watched a fragment of a low-budget thriller. The man and the woman (husband and wife, I believe) wanted to kill each other for some reason. She made a supper for both of them. The main course was mushrooms. The man ate them only after seeing that the woman has eaten them also, because he suspected she wanted to poison him. Relieved that there was no poison in the mushrooms, the man made a mistake and drank a glass of wine without waiting for the woman to do the same. The man dropped dead. It turned out that the mushrooms were poisonous after all, but only after being mixed with wine.
