Can apparently healthy cakes and mushrooms be contaminated?

Ive just completed my third grow- nepal cubensis in a pmp using geolite. It seemed like my most successful yet- all cakes produced beautifully even flushes of perfect looking mushrooms. Both times I have eaten them I have had intense nausea, which Ive not had before. This has happenned eating them both wet and dry and in tea. I am wondering- if the cakes were contaminated surely there would be an odour or mould spots or something but they appear healthy. As I said, the shrooms themselves also look great.
So, is it possible for cakes and mushrooms to appear perfectly healthy, yet still harbour a contaminant which will make you ill when you eat them?

They aren't contaminated.
It's just the nature of the beast I'm afraid. Try making tea.

There is nothing wrong with your shrooms.

I always get nauseous when the onset of the "experience" come on. Especially when I've taken a large dose, or they are especially stronger than normal. Small amounts not so much. So I equate the amount of nausea to the amount of dose or strength of given specimen.

Some people always get sick from shrooms, other never do. It's normal.
