I have never eaten one but I have heard that the effects are not enjoyable at all. If you do decide to eat one just remember that the effects are from a toxin.
Here is a reference you can look at http://www.erowid.org/plants/amanitas/amanitas.shtml

Man why does everyone diss amanita's i've eaten tons of these before i used to pick the yellow fly's in my area all the time i loved them fresh it's a totally different kinda trip not a visual thing at all amanita also go great with herb personally i like taking a half oz dried and making a tea i like black tea with a lil milk and honey i eat the mush and all yummy! i've always had a good time i've heard of people have a bad time but i think they took it thinking it would be like cubies and it's not at all i'd recommend ordering them instead of trying to pick them cause they're hard to tell apart from death caps i had a friend that was picking for over a decade that i went with and i'd walk up to him with angel death caps all the time and well it was just funny he moved away so i no longer go pick fresh ones don't wanna die

Amanitas can be great. They are an amazing mushroom. Don't let all the negative talk that they're not worth it influence you. I recommend researching the topic online and like mentioned order the through trusted online vendor.

It has to be prepared properly, but considering the odds of correct preparation, I'd rather pass it up and just keep lookin for Subbs ect.

I've always taken Amanita in tea and found it to be pretty enjoyable. Not at all like cubes though if that's what you're looking for. Made me feel pretty heavy and very relaxed. Good for a leisurely evening of hanging out and walking about. I found it put me in a great mindset for meditation too.
Just bring the dried Amanita to a simmer on the stove for 15 mins or so, strain, and drink. Look up dosage info, I can't remember offhand, but you don't want to over do it, or there is the possibility you could feel pretty nauseous. I think I started pretty low and didn't feel much, then increased slowly until I found a good spot. I don't think I ever went over 5g though. Check out some of the Erowid reports and as mentioned, buy from a trusted website unless you are experienced at identifying them in the wild.
I really liked the flavor of the tea too which kind of suprised me considering I didn't add anything to it.

i didn't see any vendors that sell amanita's for growning you can't grow them inside and i haven't really heard of people trying to make out door patches but that might just be me if you know what you doing pick n flick is the best advice but once again i don't recommend anyone picking these without someone with alot of experince they are called false death caps for a reason do some reading on erowid about them i think they are wonderful mushroom just totally different from a cube read and read again and they aren't a party drug so if that's what your looking for i guess look elsewhere

i've never tried them, but i've read a fair bit about them, and if they only grew in my area, i would most likely have eaten some by now.
the main psychoactive compound in amanita muscaria is muscimol. i don't THINK amanitas contain any psilocybin. if they do, the amount is negligible. so you know right off the bat it's gonna be different.
i've heard of people having a really great time, and also really horrible experiences involving vomiting and diarrhea and other unpleasantness.
interestingly, i read in "shroom: a cultural history of the magic mushroom" by Andy Letcher, (great book!) that the muscimol content in amanitas can vary greatly according to geographic location, and even from specimen to specimen, so the effects will also vary drastically. some people say they experienced euphoria, while others won't trip at all, and just puke.
if i happened upon a fly agaric, i'd probably give it a nibble. just a bit at first, and slowly add more over the next few hours if things were going well.
they're pretty distinguishable mushrooms, it would be relatively hard to mistake any amanitas for a deadly look-a-like. not like some of the other actives out there! but even so, a vendor is probably the safest option. at least get a really good field guide!
happy shrooming!

Diphen is by far the most fucked up, worse trip ive ever had. i didnt kno other people actually did that shit to. lol. ive taken 42 benadryl before, thought it was over. if amanita is anything at all like that, then u can count me out.

I see them in my yard every year, roughly the same spot year after year... But I've never even considered eating them. Too risky... You never know how you're going to react to them until you've already eaten/drank them, and by then it's a little late. Just not worth the risk for me, esp considering I react badly to cannabis... there no telling what my body chemistry will make of them.
If they grow again this year and I beat the lawnmower to them, I'll save some aside and just give them away or something, but I'll flat out refuse them every time.
