First time I ever did opium was by accident and it was orally. I was friends with this Indian kid back in my dorm and his relatives always mailed him huge packages full of food and all these Indian spices, remedies etc... One day we got something to eat and the food gave both of us a nasty stomach ache. Back in his room he produces a ziploc bag full of spices seeds and God knows what else. He says it is some old Indian recipe that cures stomach problems so we dig in. My stomach felt better but I also felt different. Somewhat relaxed, maybe feeling a little strange, I didnt feel baseline for sure. I tried to disregard the feeling but I couldn't shake it. Turns out that this seed/spice mixture contained opium. It wasn't strong, maybe the threshold effects of an opium dose, but nevertheless it is possible to get a little something out of eating opium.
