Mushrooms with food.

[Blaastoid]

I'm stoned right now so my mind isn't thinking fully but does eating mushrooms with say pizza dull the effects?
I haven't tried Mushies yet though.
If not, what other foods are good to eat with the Shrooms.
I'm not a huge fan of the taste.

I usually eat them with peanut butter.

Digesting food does take away from the trip IME.

I used to make steak with mushroom sauce, mushroom soup and roasts with mushrooms for me and my partner. I would always counteract the dulled effects by adding more mushrooms. I did a lot of experiments with dosages to find the sweet spot.

There are easier ways to avoid the taste though.

You could dry them, chop them up with a knife and then grind them to powder.
That's how I handle my homegrown. Stored in 1gram alu foil packets.

edit: just to be clear, this way you can swallow them with one gulp of water, witout the taste. I have to say mine smelled like chocolate .
And they start working faster because your stomach doesn't need to work so much, as they're already ground to dust.

edit2: on topic: I wouldn't do it with food, especially your first time. Play around with the dose on an empty stomach, beginning low and progressing higher if wanted.
I'd suggest a light meal (chicken salad or sth) 4hours beforehand.

I wouldn't trip on an empty stomach, and I wouldn't eat my shrooms with a heavy meal either. I'd eat some non-laced pizza or whatever and then just chill for an hour or two, and then make some shroom tea, my gf digs when I make it with peach herbal tea and sugar. Gelcaps work too.

eat ON the shrooms, everything tastes divine!

Swallow shrooms after a light meal to reduce nausea

 

[xx001]

Eating other foods with the shrooms will probably make it take longer to kick in but the potency should be the same. Some people find that eating the shrooms on an empty stomach helps with nausea. You could always try a mushroom tea also.

It could add to the length of the come up but the amount of psilocybin absorbed should be the same in the end

 

[EarthBounded]

eating them on a piece of pizza is totally fine. You can also soak them in lemon juice or orange juice read up online

 

[.:Holy::Toast:.]

If you don't like the taste I grind them up and put them in large capsules or throw the powder in some orange juice.
It's a little gross feeling and the taste is still there, but it's much easier to slam a glass of juice than eat and eighth if you really dislike the taste.

I learnt from my first few cubensis trips that eating food before/at the same time/immediately after dulled the trip massively and even added to stomach upset. Now if I'm intending on shrooming in the evening, I'll avoid all solid foods (or even any kind of food) for at least 8 hours prior to ingestion, crush the dried cubes up as finely as I can (usually 6-8 grams), wrap in a tissue (single ply, tearing off every bit of excess paper), then swallow the tissue ball whole with a few mouthfuls of water. Occasionally I'll follow it up with a black coffee w/ a bit of honey just to get things moving along without adding something that needs to be broken down...but I won't eat until at least after the come up, which by then unless you're complimenting it with weed it's unlikely you'll have an interest in food anyway.

In my experience though, I NEED to eat something at some stage after I've come up, if only to avoid nasty heartburn and digestive system irritation.

my absolute all-time favorite way to eat shrooms is in the form of chocolates with ground shrooms inside of them... when i got them it was usually a gram or two to a chocolate, if i remember correctly. they were delicious and i don't think eating the chocolate along with the shrooms detracted from the trip in any way.

 

[RhythmSpring]

In my experience, food just draws out the experience, and makes the peaks less so. The amount of effects you get ends up being the same, it's just... digested more slowly.

Just throwing them on a peanut butter sandwich works really well to dull the taste.

I like boiling them in water, 2 cups for every eighth of shrooms, but as soon as the water hits a boil, turn it down and add some teabags. I like Earl Grey personally. Throw in a bunch of sugar to make it sweet and serve it with a soup ladel. It always hits you quick and even with that method IME. you can strain off the mushroom bits and just drink the tea and it doesn't make a difference, but you can swallow them just to make sure you're getting everything if you prefer.

I have a few friends that would go out and buy Whopper Jrs from Burger King and throw the mushrooms on the burger and eat them that way. Mushroom Chocolates tastes the best imo.

 

[MatttS]

If you're worried about dulling the effects I've found the easiest way's to just eat them straight. I hate the taste as well but I'm convinced pinching your nose while you eat them dulls the taste a bit - I normally eat a small amount in between swigging a strong tasting drink, makes it muchhhhh easier.

 

[Morninggloryseed]

Disgusting. Eat your shrooms, or make honey, or make an easy to isolate mostly pure-ish psilocybin powder.

Id just eat the shrooms straight and chase it with a tasty beverage. Ive never had to urge to eat while tripping. Tripping can be very fun if you make sure its a nice atmosphere, chill people, and most importantly a relaxed mind state going in.

Ive never had a bad trip. I kinda started to one time and I pulled myself out.

One time I had a bad hippy flip trip (shrooms and x) but a female friend helped me work through that. A massage and holding the opposite sex can help if you get to feeling weird. The only reason that went bad was I had gotten into a fight with a crack head right outside the club when he tried to rob us and well someone got hurt and it was him. It was not cool cuz I was coming up fast. My friend noticed and stayed with me through the night and sorted my trip right out into something beautiful. If she wasn't there I suppose I woulda just hit up the bar asap.

Sorry for derail I just wanted to throw out a few tips since OP hasn't tripped yet.

Actually Shamans in Mexico drink chocolate with mushrooms...or so I read. And their chocolate is not the watered down sweetened version we know in the West.

Ive gotten shrooms in chocolate. I figured it was to conceal it as it look liked top quality confectionary store candy. It was shaped and engraved with extreme detail and was wrapped in foil of some brand Id never heard of. It was a very strong dose. I don't know if it was the chocolate or the source. I always wondered if maybe it had other drugs in it like rc's as those were so cheap at the time. It was definetly shrooms but something augmented it for sure.
