so, yesterday my friend sara and i took some shrooms. about an hour after taking them, she told me they were about a year old. i've been told this affects the trip, and it sort of did. i mean, i tripped for a really short amount of time. i was moreso high from weed than i was tripping. i'm gonna get better shrooms soon, hopefully, and do them again. we put them under the cheese on a pizza, is that okay? >.<
I'm guessing that due to the age of the mushrooms, the psilocybin had degraded, and therefor you just got some very limited effects. As for putting them under pizza, it should be fine as long as you're not baking the mushrooms for a long time (High temperatures can also degrade psilocybin)
Could also be your dose how much did you take? Because the way I understand it, unless the psilocybin is exposed to threatening conditions (ex: high temp) it should preserve for much longer than a year. I get my shrooms in blocks of chocolate (3 grams per) and I've kept a block for months and months and it still gazonked me. But of course the chocolate itself could act as a preservative shell.
If you cooked them in a pizza you most likely destroyed a lot of the psylocibin. Heat kills mushrooms. If kept at room temp, relatively airtight and dry mushrooms should remain potent for a few years.
well, the shrooms were hella old. we didn't cook it with the pizza, we just ordered it, and put it under the cheeses
jesus people they are just mushrooms. they taste fine as is. most of the resistance to the taste is in your mind. if you chew and accept the taste you'll find they really aren't that bad. they taste like candy compared to other things you have to choke down to see visions.
Oma's right, compared to cacti or aya, shrooms are a fucking delicacy. That being said, sticking them in a peanut butter sandwich can help if it's that much of an issue. In my experience, keeping them in the freezer greatly helps preservation.
