There are other ways of identifying it! Without any description, it could

It is, but you can still buy it. However, it doesn't work at all well.

The best form of alleviation is to remove all woody material near the
surface, and cover with a layer of earth, as Armillaria mellea spreads
primarily by spores, and will produce fruiting bodies only on exposed
wood.
