Magic mushrooms can be consumed for fun or as part of a spiritual experience. Whatever the case may be, many people look for alternative ways to ingest a mushroom instead of taking it raw. When raw, the mushrooms can taste quite bitter. Use our guide below for 5 ideal ways to eat magic mushrooms.
Best Ways To Eat Magic Mushrooms
Consuming shrooms should not be a nauseating experience for users. Check out a list of the five best ways to consume magic mushrooms below.
1. Chew And Swallow
The most common way of ingesting magic mushrooms is by simply eating them. If you choose this method of consumption, it is crucial to chew the mushrooms thoroughly. This will allow all the juices to come out. The psychoactive compound released from the mushroom courtesy of your saliva will then mix with your blood, eventually reaching every cell in your body.
It’s likely to take at least 45 minutes for the shrooms to start working, depending on stomach content. The less you eat ahead of time, the faster the mushroom will work. The experts advise avoiding food for a few hours.
2. Mix With Tea
If you aren’t a fan of the bitter taste of mushrooms, you could think about making this magic brew. Taking your magic mushrooms in tea will cause the undesirable taste to disappear. You can mix the mushrooms with tea by boiling water, crushing the mushroom into small pieces and tossing it in the drink.
Slowly heat the pan while keeping it close to simmering, but refrain from bringing it to boil. Boiling the water could potentially destroy the active compound. Let the drink rest for 10-15 minutes before consuming.
3. Psilocybin Edibles
When you add magic mushrooms to food you can unlock a new world of experiences. Incorporating these mushrooms into food can assist both the taste and queasiness often associated with taking psychedelics. Magic mushrooms can be added to nearly any kind of food, so feel free to use whatever you prefer.
It’s recommended to add mushrooms to a sauce or topping. Try not to cook the mushrooms on a pizza, for example. Cooking the mushrooms can break down the psilocybin under excessive heat.
4. Capsules
Capsules offer the unique opportunity for users to microdose the magic mushrooms or truffles. Utilizing little more than a grinder, capsule machine and empty capsule, you will be able to create your own magic mushroom capsules.
The capsules can be discreetly taken throughout the day, removing the unwanted bitter taste that can come with microdosing. Do not take capsules that you did not personally make.
5. Lemon Tek
Not only is this mix quick to make, but users also believe the acidic nature of the lemon breaks the psilocybin down, intensifying the trip. With that in mind, it’s recommended to start this mix with half the amount of shrooms you would normally take.
Ground the shrooms and mix it with lemon juice in a short glass. Leave it to sit, add water and consume it in one go. Lime juice can also have a similar effect. Lemon tek is undoubtedly a fast and effective method for consumption.
When To Avoid Eating Mushrooms
While natural psychedelics have played a long role in human history, it is also important to know when shrooms are unsafe for consumption. If you notice any of these warning signs, avoid eating the mushrooms altogether.
- Mushrooms or truffles have gone bad.
- You are taking prescription medication(s).
- You feel mentally unprepared for consumption.
*Please note in 47 out of 50 states, psychedelic mushrooms are perfectly legal. Users can buy, sell and own psilocybin mushroom spores for research purposes only. However, it is illegal in nearly all jurisdictions to cultivate magic mushrooms. Psilocybin spores are never to be cultivated.
The only exception is in New Mexico, where it remains legal to grow mushrooms as long as no steps are taken to preserve the mushrooms. Make sure to familiarize yourself with your local psychedelic spore laws before placing an order. Psilocybin mushroom spores are currently illegal in California, Georgia and Idaho.
