Ok, so I'm planning on fungusizing my mind this weekend and I'm curious what everyone's favorite way of getting them down is. Mine it to slather a slice of nice wheat bread with either lots of spicey mustard or lots of honey, plop the fungi right in there, fold it up, and much it all down.
 
I prefer to just nom on them. Cubensis are tasty at first for me. Once the taste is too saturated and rich to be pleasant I finish what I'm chewing. The way it starts is usually the way it progresses, so I try to keep it pleasant and willing. Still want to try smoking some, I've read so many conflicting debates concerning smoked psilocybin.

Same here. As long as they're fairly fresh, then they taste just fine. I've even sipped a little bit of lemon water and kept them in my mouth a while, trying to do some sublingual absorption, which did seem to make the effects start up quicker and stronger. Plus, I think there's a lot of value in munching them on a pretty empty stomach, so I never really eat anything with them.
 
Fresh, I can eat easily and find it ok to digest and all. Dry, I can eat and all but I find it gives me much nausea, harder to digest. If its dry, I rather do something like the lemon tek. Alternatively im gonna try soaking them in ethanol, filter, evap till small amount and ingest that, some people seemed to have success this way.
 
I'd eat fresh like freshly picked mushroom, if not, lemon tek them.
If you have too many dried one you can also grind half ounce and let airtight in a honey jar (in honey).
This will preserve them but also make them really good in tea, spoon dosing them.
 
I can only eat fresh ones, and they're great. With dry mushrooms, I make tea, it's the best if the liquid doesn't bother you. It's also more easy on the body. I use a weed grinder to make some fine pieces & dust over which I pour hot water and let it sit for 15 minutes, that gets pretty much everything out of them. I then mix this liquid with regular tea and drink it. Gives the tea a nice earthy feeling.
 
I don't have the luxury of fresh... they're nice and crunchy. I never have a large issue with my stomach, I just find the dried ones to taste like shit. I'm looking right now, but I thought I saw a post at one point pointing out that shrooms went down great with chocolate. I'm going to look for this lemon tech you guys are talking about...




Just found it...I'm using the lemon/lime tek... sounds excellent.... anything to make for the most comfy ride...
 
To me, dried or fresh they taste the same and cause an instant gag reflex. Tea too. They have somewhat ruined my taste for mushrooms in general, not that I've really liked them anyway, but I've been trying to adjust myself to some regular edibles. Oysters are yummy when sauted with onions and peppers, as a starter for just about anything.

I grind them and put them in capsules. They take a little longer to come on, but I usually take rue so they gradually ramp up and back down anyway. I can't wait to try them with caapi and a little spice, not that it needs to be any more epic. I want to experiment with some alcohol extracts eventually.
 
I'm glad you posted this thread! I just harvest my first penis envy flush, and they're nearly dry (still a bit wet, though).

Can't wait to try that lemon tek once they're dried!

From my past experiences, like damon stated, theres an immediate gag reflex upon biting on the fungus..

In my earlier years I was able to eat these without a problem, but my last time I almost puked just eating the first tiny mushy..

Capsules or lemon tek is the way to go for me !
 
Taking the lemon tek one step further into the realm of tastiness...

I'm going to do it with lime juice... is there any reason I can't make limeade with my goody-infused juice?

Lime is good too. Any kind of jello works too, I like grape, it seems to cover the flavor the best. You can even put lime in the jello and mix it all up. Use less liquid than the jello box calls for, to make sure it sets well. Runny shroom jello is harder to get down.
 
Personally I just eat (dried) fungi plan with some lemon water (or just plain water if I dont have lemons) as a chase. But it would seem this is rather unpleasant for you so here are some options I have seen others use..

Peanut butter.

Exactly a few friends who cant stand the taste make a pbj (peanut butter and jam) and mushroom sandwich.. I know it sounds nasty to me too but they say you cant taste it at all..

Someone mentioned steeping in alcohol, filtering and ... Never tried it but another friend who does not like the taste of mushrooms (but likes the taste of wine :? ) grinds his up and steeps them in a bit of wine (i have seen him do it in both red and white) for half an hour before taking it back.. He says you cant taste it and it makes it more "effective" (hits harder/faster).

Lastly the same friend who now uses the wine trick (above) previously used to grind up his mushies and make a sort of whipped cream/mushroom mix he would eat with a spoon. He didnt seem to mind it and said it masked the taste nicely..

Not sure if any of these things actually work as I have never bothered with them myself but others swear by them .. Either way I hope I have given you something more to think about..

Enjoy! whatever your choice may be!
 
Thanks for all the ideas and input.

I CAN eat dry shroomies without much issue, I just am looking to reduce that shit taste (if I have to I have to - not a lot makes me gag). So any idea that makes getting them into mah belly more comfortably is way groovy
 
I just munch them. I dont get any nausea or what so ever, so i dont see the point in wasting time with more complex procedures.
 
I like the taste. I like to wander around a museum or out on a hike just nibbling on a cap or two till the edge of euphoria comes. To actually trip, though, I am sold on the lemon tek, not for the taste, but because it is a faster, cleaner, no-body-load high.
 
I agree, Lemon Tek.

I'll chop up the mushroom material as fine as I can. put it in a shot glass. get the water running till it gets as hot as it will.
Fill the shot glass half way or a bit more. let that sit for 10-15minutes. then I'll fill the rest of the shot up with lemon juice and let the shot glass sit in a bowl or piece of Tupperware with more fresh hot water. to keep it warm. If i had lemon oil i'd probably add a drop or so, as lemon oil is potent for anti-nausea. I pour the shot through a filter, into another cup. and press the juice out of the mushroom material. then I drink.

This can be done more than once with the same mushroom material for those that think this will reduce potency and that it leaves behind actives. (I have a friend that thinks this)

You could pour that juice into some other fruit juice. Or if you let a miracle fruit candy sit in your mouth while prepping this, it totally makes the psilly lemon water taste like straight candy. I found it a bit too sweet tho. but it totally changes the taste from sour to sweet.
 
The best recipe that I came up with was ICED TEA! Boil up some good flavoured loose leaf tea from teaopia (twice the normal amount as you would want for hot tea), soak 10 grams of cubies, filter and add a bunch of sugar and cool it in the fridge. Grab some shot glasses and make the best of it:roll:
