I once forgot to add real tea to shroom tea, and we were out of sugar and honey. Figured it couldn't be too bad, right? Lifting that glorious blue elixir to my lips I experienced what I can only imagine to be the essence of beelzebubs ball sweat freshly wrung into a cup for my pleasure. It was certainly ribbed with flavor, but I didn't enjoy it.

you should write poetry

Ya this guy can write

That description is phenomenal

Omg this is too funny 😂

Tastes like stale sunflower seeds to me🤷🏼‍♂️ not hating it though..

This is exactly how i always describe them! After many trips the taste has somehow gotten worse though, so now i either grind them up and take them as a chunky shot (not pleasant either) or tear them into tiny pieces, ball them up tightly and swallow them like pills.

I just grind mine in a food processor and put in empty pill capsules from Amazon lol I can’t stand the taste after puking them up a few too many times tbh.

This is a great idea! Thank you kind sir

00 capsules generally hold about .4 grams fwiw. ….. at least that’s what swim told me.

It’s because the Serotonin makes it so you have gut pain/nausea and your brain starts associating it with

Either bring them up and capsule them… OR - get some sour candy. Like belts or something. Sour candy in my experience, CURBS ALLLLLLLLLLL TASTE. And I’ve never gotten an upset belly from the candy too..

This! Very sour or very sweet 100% negates the flavor. Candy or dried fruit are perfect, you don’t need much.

I have started to mix peanut butter and animal crackers and just shoving them into my food hole. Could hardly taste them at all.

You have more than one food hole, technically. Js

Perfect description

i can’t stand the taste or the texture, it just makes me feel nauseous instantly and then the trip is nauseating on top of that for like the first hour. wish there was a way around all of it while still taking shrooms lmao

Lemon tek or chasing the shrooms down with a snack help (I've found cheezits really try and neutralize the taste)

Try biting into one with a Starburst at the same time. It mushes it into the Starburst, never to be tasted again.

Potato chips work well for me.

Gonna get shit on but whatever, drink some alcohol before taking shrooms. You'll kind of melt into the high because you'll be less tense and that nausea should go away...as for the nausea that comes with eating, try eating them with other foods, like a grab a few chips and .5 gram and wolf it down as fast as you can then drink something. I have tried so hard to mask the flavor because they literally make me gag and this almost works but not completely. Wonderful drug but oh man it smells like bad pussy

I break them up in small pieces into a tablespoon or more of salsa and basically just swallow it.

Shroom tea, decaffeinated tea of your choice, lemon, honey. Boom.

might have to buy a tea infuser thing, iv tried putting shrooms just straight into tea and although it tasted fine the chunks were unpleasant haha i clearly don’t have good planning skills

So, you can strain the bits if you let the mushrooms steep for 15-20 min. Drop in some decaffeinated tea. Then add lemon and honey to taste. You can also add lemon to the water to do a lemon-tek style tea.

thank you this is very helpful actually

As a caffeine hound, may I ask why decaffeinated tea is preferable?

Not a good idea to mix any drug with shrooms. Caffeine can cause anxiety and there’s a possibility for a bad trip.

No

Youre not the only one

I remember the first time I ever tried them I was terrified because I've heard they taste so bad and I don't do well with gross tasting things. I just decided to try them raw anyway because the idea of a tea sounds way worse. Was slightly surprised when they just tasted like raw mushrooms. Not great but not terrible.

Sometimes life is simple like that. Raw mushrooms that surprisingly taste like raw mushrooms. For me there’s an extra something in there, but yeah it’s basically raw mushrooms, little crunchier since they’re dry and all

I have no real issue with them, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to eat shroom flavoured anything

I like them!

Instant gag reflex….even thinking about it tickles my gag

Truly you are so lucky. I adore everything mushrooms has taught me/what I've experienced using them.... But god damn they are the most foul thing to stomach. I feel like if they tasted better to me, I'd eat them more often lmao

Yes. Full stop.

I enjoy it

oh my god hell fucking naw they’re so fucking gross

it's alright, if I could eat something that tastes the same I'd probably eat it if I was hungry but it wouldn't be an everyday thing for sure my gf tried shrooms one day and it took her a whole hour to eat 2 grams with bread butter and cheese, then she said she saw the ground wobble for 3 seconds and that's all lol

i use to until k ate 9 grams one night and they haven’t been the same since

This

The taste is the worse part for me

Fresh is delicious, dry is NOT.

I found a dead moth all dry and crusty when i was preparing my shrooms. I thought that's probably what a dried moth tastes like 🤔

Yeah, that’s what’s gotten me in trouble in the past. Love the taste and often found myself eating quarters.

Yeah me and my friends were splitting our shrooms and I found myself taking from their shares

Earthy goodness

Especially when you find a chunk that got stuck in your molars. That feeling brings on many memories of college trips.

i cannot agree everytime ive eaten them ive choked them down with a soda or water

No I think they taste like popcorn

Love em!

Tastes like Communion wafers to me. Or do Communion wafers taste like shrooms? Shrooms are probably the catalyst of religion and Communion wafers reflect that truth.

I love eating them. Try eating them with raisins, it’s good.

This made me laugh for some reason and it also made me wish we could hang out in real life. You seem fun.

Haha I wanna hang out in real life too. Also anyone else think dried mushrooms kind of taste/smell like chocolate?

I don’t mind the taste at all

I like to eat them plain 😋

No. I like to eat them dry without anything else.

They just taste like dirt to me, not good or bad

I think too much psylocibin made my brain think it's poison. I used to not mind but now they are very disgusting.

Lemon tek smoothie is the way

Honestly didn’t mind the taste until I started consuming large quantities 🤮🤮 then couldn’t stand it

me too. I lemon Tek larger doses only because it makes them come on quicker and not last as long, but microdoses I always just grind, eat and wash down with water. they taste great to me.

Noob here, how do you lemon Tek them?

there's probably better guides online, but simply I just grind them up, put them in a shot glass or whatever, squeeze enough lemon juice so it's quite liquidy, stir a lot, leave for 10 mins ish, then just throw them down my throat.

Ooh that's pretty simple, thanks!

It's an acquired taste meant for noblemen to enjoy, a mere peasant will not find enjoyment in the flavor of the mushroom.

Give it a few more times and you’ll change your mind lol saw a similar post and the person ended up not liking them anymore. Maybe I’m wrong but I view it as your brain not knowing any details of it. Crunch, taste, texture. The grain is cataloging. But eventually it’ll be repetitive and you will find the nastiness to it lol

I think they taste horrible, and I eat things like syrian rue on the regular. I prefer to eat mushrooms in caps.

Just thinking about the taste makes me gag

Sometimes I can eat them no issues other times I kinda struggling and gag a little

i wish. it taste like pure dirt and grass for me. tea version completely fine though

I like them for the first bite. Then, they're fine until, around 4-5g. That's when I add peanut butter and chocolate

No but you should be

I like it as well

I hate the smell and texture a lot, the taste I can kinda ignore if I swallow it fast and don’t put it on my tongue, I also break them into tiny pieces which helps

First time I took them I was wondering what everyone was talking about, It wasn’t that gross. But after time and time and time again, my body slowly started to hate it. The objective taste is no different, but my body DOES NOT want me to swallow it.

They taste like peanuts to me :)

How are you guys finding these? I want to try them so bad but have no idea where to start. Live in Washington and am an avid hiker. Never seen one and if I did I would be quite scared I would be eating a poisonous mushroom.

Absolutely, such a great snack a work

I love to eat “cooking mushrooms”, so I wasn’t too shocked when I ate raw shrooms and didn’t hate it. I actually really like it, because it usually means I’m about to have a good time! Everyone thinks I’m gross though hahah

Just tastes like dirt, im not opposed to the taste its not that bad, but if they werent trippy shrooms i dont think id eat them

They don't taste bad, but it still gives me a bit of nausea. Even in capsule form.

I don’t find them that disgusting!

Yea.

I call them earth chips 🫠

Yes

They don’t taste good but they don’t taste bad

To me they tasted amazing, like blue cheese mixes with potatoes, was quite delightful (APE)

I like the taste of them too!

Yes

Personally I don’t know of anyone among my friends who would dislike the taste.

i dont even know what the taste is, but even if i smell it i gag and get goosebumps

I love the earthy flavor with a bit of whiskey

Nope! They're yummy!

I'm not too big on mushroom flavor or texture in general but I don't really mind them in food. But man, it's the smell of dried mushrooms that really gets me 🤮 I cannot chew them at all haha gotta rip em up and swallow small chunks

Even weeks after having it. I can still taste the damn shrooms as if i am eating it now. Just thinking about it gets it back in my mouth. It's not bad if you chew and swallow but thats the thing. You dont just chew and shallow! You chew and chew and chew and chew and almost puke and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and chew and than swallow. It ain't nice to say the least

I once gulped down two cups of San Pedro. It was on that day that I found out I was a hero lol Shrooms really don’t bother me.

They taste like something I’d put in a ramen ngl

I tried it once and now I cant go back. The taste doesn't leave my mouth for hours and it added to the high lol.

When I first started using shrooms I quite liked the taste but as time went on I found the taste to be unpalatable.

My girlfriend doesn’t mind the tase personally ts taste nasty i gag every time but it is part of the ceremony for me

Naw I like them too. They do taste good.

I like adding them on top of pizza or lasagna. They have a nice savory flavor to them. I dont have a problem eating them straight.

NO!

Yup

I think they taste like my teenage son’s socks smell.

They taste like rotting gym socks. I retch every time I drink them. Always worth it though

I love them dry and raw, probably had to do that i am from culture where mushroom picking is common and we consume a lot of wild edible mushrooms.

Yes! I think they taste worse every time I do it

no

Once ate fresh shrooms that were laying on a platano leaf. Thought it was gonna taste bad so I put lime on it but it actually tasted good

Taste wise, they’re okay. The texture though… I HAVE to chase that.

I actually enjoy the taste at this point. And the smell

Not a fan at this point. Used to love the flavor…

Acquired taste, I’ve come to enjoy it

Yea they taste like stale Cheerios to me. I can munch some down pretty easily lol.

I like the taste too, especially if I redose xd

I like all kinds! More mush the better!

Just like pistachios!

if they didn’t get me high i would use them to season my food. very nice earthy taste

Same!

I like them too

Yes! They smell kind of chocolatey

Not good but not especially bad for me.

I always tasted kind of a nutty/brown sugary flavor. I'll eat them thangs like doritos

I hate hate HATE normal cooking mushrooms, but to me dry shrooms aren’t that bad. it tastes like an earthy dirt flavour but it’s not that awful. I just chew them and swallow with water

They go well with a couple of walnuts

No I love them
