    just get them down your neck lad with some crisps or a meat pie and a big sweaty mug of tea ...in a transport cafe with about twenty mates doing the same ...are there any left with jukeboxes? (idea for new thread ...)

    It's totally up to you. If you want to get absolute maximum effect from the mushrooms, eat them as you got them (raw) or with some kind of food (sprinkling them on after it's been cooked). If you strain them into a tea or cook them they will lose some potency but it'll be hardly noticable.

    Normally I'll say that I'm going to put them in a tea or in honey but I can never be arsed, I nearly always just end up eating them raw. The truffles are a bit nasty, especially after 3 large mouthfuls you get a horrid aftertaste. Fresh Cubensis 'shrooms I quite like though, taste really juicy and fresh. Couldn't stop eating them.

    No wonder I fucked up on the bus. :chin:

    It depends really, I dont really mind the taste, however it can be difficult to dose accurately if you are just eating the fresh/dry because each one will be different.

    I'd advise that you make a tea out of them, just put them into a mug, pour over hot but not boiling water and add a tea bag, one of the fruit with ginger ones will mask the taste easily. Then when the active ingredient is in solution you can better judge how much you are using. However as z0ma mentioned you will loose a little of the potency.

    They dont taste too bad anyway, after youve munched loads of them then the after taste builds up. But they really arent bad at all. So i wouldnt worry about that.

    Eat them raw, or stick them in a muffin or something if you dont like the taste.

    Ive had mushroom tea.

    Absolutley wank.

    But then mushrooms are wank anyway.

    Your probably just a 'hard head' with them Minxy, I'm sure they would work if you took enough.

    Thats what I mean, some people are just 'hard heads' when it comes to certain drugs. I have no idea why, there have been a few things in the past which I just got nothing from even when I took loads.
