What is it about so many folks who balk at the taste of a substance that, within an hour of ingestion will bring them wonderous beauty, or bliss or sublime and ecstatic pleasure?


I just got through the mushroom thread and there are ways to eat mushrooms to disguise the taste - hell guys, the taste is part of the experience. I was posting about chewing reds and the taste of mushrooms has NOTHING on the taste of secobarbital. So grin and bear it, take your taste lumps for a greater goal. Want foul? grind up three large poppy heads, dump in warm water, stir and drink it down - and then floss that gritty crap out of your teeth - but an hour later you don't give a good god damn about the taste.


so quit yer whining about the taste of what it is you eat, the taste is what puts hair on your chest if you are a man and estrogen in your hips if you are a woman.


so there.


:-o

Man up as cando said, well I am not going to say no but if you really hate the taste then go to a health food store get a gelatin capsule machine (20$) and some 00 capsules and take them that way. The nice thing about the 00 is they weigh half a gram and if you have been twisted out of your skull you know messing with a scale is a bitch.All you need is a quality coffe grinder then fill the caps with the dust

When I was eating dried mushrooms I tore them into small bits, put them in my mouth, covered them with saliva and swallowed. Then I bore the aftertaste and went on about my business.

Man up damn it, :)

I agree shrooms are pretty palatable compared to various chems

And bigmac? greasy :/(imho) EVERYONE knows the best way is in a cruncy PB&J :P cant even tell

Yes . You are more manly because embrace nasty tastes. :lol:

I never liked the texture and always end up with little pieces of shrooms caught up in my teeth through the night.
I have used a capsule machine, but that tends to be a lot of unnecessary work.
These days I will easily just make a tea out of my dosage, filter out the mass of the fungi, and end with a potent brew that even tastes well going down.
When I am feeling lazy, I take my pile and break it all up into little pill size bits and pieces. I grab a pinch, through in my mouth a swallow with a nice refreshment never having any hassle or noticeable tase.

After experiences eating several grams of Kratom, I am all for easiest methods of ingesting.

Picky eater? PICKY EATER? this isn't a meal for your belly but a feast for your mind. The mushroom tastes bad for a reason, now why would you deny that reason? The best medicine tastes bitter, but mushroom is meant to be gross. Imagine a heavy door that leads to a beautiful garden, do we begrudge leaning upon the door and exerting our full strength in order to enter the garden?


Why no, we don't.


It occurs to me that anyone who has read my many posts might recall or come upon a statement I made about refusing to eat cacti. I want to set things straight, it is not the taste that restrains me but the amount that must be eaten, a large stomach full, a thanksgiving stuff yourself and fall asleep amount and beyond.


I wonder how many substances would not be taken if nothing were in capsules or pills.


(and no I am not serious - having communicated with the mushroom more times than I can count, it has never ever instructed me on the proper way to eat it - and if it were averse to this sort of nonsense it would be repulsed at anyone who reduced it to it's essence which is the only way I will take them now).

Except for one thing.


It is a sacrilege of the highest order to put mushrooms in fast food sandwiches except for the In-n- out double double

Extracted cacti is one of my favorite treats. I couldnt imagine chewing away at any fresh chunk or even the slimy bitter tea.

Weren't you just posting about in the aya thread about having more interest in phara than traditional brew to avoid the purge?

After my first experience with mushroom tea I knew I could experience the full effects without having having to put myself through and stomach down a handful of something unlpleasing to me. It was like a lightbulb turning on in my head saying I can now enjoy every aspect of the experience instead of the fearing moments of a dreaded ingestion. This was also the first time I never had any nausea after consumption.

Since then as mentioned I have consumed in bits and pieces like they were pills without any discomfort, but throwing a few mushers in my mouth and waiting for them to get soggy and chewy while my mouth fills with flavor is just a personal turn off with some many other options at hand. I do enjoy sitting around with a nice clean tab of L in my mouth though I know it will do me just as good to swallow from the start.

I just don't see myself as a lightweight for not wanting to chomp shroom after shroom. Especially when dosing around a quarter oz vs just eating a couple caps.

I am not talking about the puke portion here, just the bitter, sour, astringent, or god awful flavors that we all get around in order to fullfill our mental desires. Recall in that thread I spoke of the disasterous results of vomiting in a tank.


I said before - alcohol in it's raw state is pretty nasty. Really, does anyone actually like the flavor of vodka straight up?

It seems to me that a "good" vodka is one that tastes "clear" so.. well. I'd say no, by that logic, but I'm sure there's subtle undertones to be observed by one with a vodka connoisseur's palette...

Personally, with shroomies, I like to eat them straight up, part of the ritual. If I can't clear my mind enough to sit and patiently eat down the shrooms even though they don't taste great, that's not a good sign! So I just take the cue and "start my trip early" by seeing it as a ritualistic act out of respect for the impending experience. This serves to put me in a humble state of mind, which helps to facilitate a healthier experience overall.

To be clear, I DON'T like the taste, but I don't find it repulsive either. After so many trips I've started to interpret the taste as being almost earthy or tasting the way fresh soil smells. This has helped a lot with the plain consumption thing. Before that I tended to try to hide it.

I think the clincher was eating them straight after already tripping hard for a long while. Several friends and I were gifted a bag of blue foots (cyanescens, extra strong, 1.5-2g = 3.5g of cubensis) and, being in the state that we were in at the time, (tripping on acid several days in the woods) we interpreted them as very unthreatening. We were grinning as we ate them straight out of the bag, commenting to eachother that it was as easy as eating potato chips.

Ever since then, they don't bother me... definitely don't taste like potato chips to me, (lol) but I do find them a lot easier to eat straight.

The only reason I use capsules is from the Gi issues I have, I can handle a puke or 2 but when it rips you stomach apart its a entire diferant game. The capsules will still make you puke the essance of a shroom its has poisen compounds but atleast when I puke its not like my stomach lining is coming up with it. If I could just sit and eat 7 grams of dry shrooms and puke or 2 I would be fine but having a unhappy stomach sucks when your fryin like a fish in a skillet.

I used to eat a lot of pharmies..A LOT..like 15 hydrocodones at a time..and the thing I learned from this is: grind up a pile of shrooms in your hand,hold your breath,throw the pile to the back of your tounge and immediatley knock back your favorite beverage...I haven't tasted em in over 10 years..or make chocolates you namby pamby marys! Lol..love the taste of ketamine also...yummy holes! Mmmmmmmm....adderall is sweet,so I don't like that..tired of speed and I don't like sweets...love the taste of nitrous,and ether in a ballon is tasty too!(not advisable for lightweights)..oh yea..pcp..one of my faves!!! Tastes like a hospiital smells...mmmm thanksgiving with a chemist....

Deliciously bitter! I've taken it sublingually to show off.
I always take it sublingually. Part of that reason is because I love to rub the crystals all over my gums and bottom of my tounge+the taste is honestly an enjoyable part of the experience for me:mrgreen: Do you prefer to just swallow the caps or snort or what?
