You can make some good szechuan dishes with these. I wonder if fresh wood ear is better than the dried ones you get from Asian markets.

I've never eaten any I've found fresh because I'm not usually very confident in my IDs but I do love cooking with the dried ones. They seem to rehydrate pretty close to fresh compared to other mushrooms.
