My friend has had a bag of shrooms in his fridge for 5 years. They were not in the freezer, so does anyone know if they might still be good?

A baggie? I would give them a 50/50 shot at having some magic left, but I would be surprised if it were much... never know until they are tried. If stored in glass I would think your chances would be much better. Be sure to let us know if they lasted or not.

I would say they are still good. As long as they do not appear to have mold on them.
Eat them.

Ok I guess we will try them, I just wanted to make sure it wouldnt make us sick or kill us hehe
As for why it was in there for 5 years, he bought them for a camping trip since he had never tried them before. But he forgot about them I guess and just found them recently. You know how some people are with fridges, they leave stuff in there so long it mutates into a flesh absorbing blob.

Ok we are about to eat these things, I am still not sure if they are 100% safe after that long. Does anybody know if something could happen to them after 5 years that would make them unhealthy to consume?

As long as no mold is growing on them I'd assume them safe to eat.

Okay, I posted this before I read the whole thread. posted below had to do with frezzing shrooms. Sorry,. You are lucky no one turned off your electricity. When I first collected shrooms in the early 1970s, I had dozens of doses in separate baggies in my ice box. When away for a week and came home to find out that the buildings entire electricty was turned off becasue the landlord never paid the bills. The ice box stunk and I lost a lot of doses that week. mj. It is not good to freeze shrooms. Dried Shrooms formthe UK over 130 years old were analysed (liberty caps ) and found that one dried gram was a spotent as fresh dried shrooms from the year before the analuysis. mj They are safe as long as you keep them from light and heat. Most people never store them longer than a few weeks until they want to get high again. It is rare to find someone hwho kept some shrooms for five years. I find it strange that maybe your friend has never cleaned his icebox in five years so as not to notice he had shrooms in it. What gives with that. That makes no sense. No one coulld be that strange to put shrooms inhis icebox and not notice them. And oine does need to clean iceboxes at least eevery two or three months, recirculate food, throw old food away, etc. How could anyone not notice shrooms in their ice box for five years. makes no sense. mj
