Eating shrooms with Honey

Has anyone tried this, I was just reading that if you dip your shrooms into honey and eat them, the sugar acts as a catalyst to break down the Psilocybin in your body. Don't know if this works, has anyone tried it?

I usually put honey in my shroom tea. Ive never noticed a difference with honey or without except for taste.

I thought honey was mainly used as a preservative... Interested to know if the sugar thing is true!

I have done this... One of my favorite ways.... I do not believe honey does much other than add some sugar and cuts the taste down... If not dipped in honey.... Honey in tea or honey in ginger tea.... Honey plays a part of every trip
I also preseve mushrooms in honey.... Win win there...

simply put sugars dont act upon psilo, only an acidic solution such as lemon juice would have any notable effect.
the reason blue honey works is due to the minute amount of water present, and since psilo is not very soluble in water one must consume the flesh along with the honey to not loose most of the dose.
I have made blue honey 3 times, twice with ground mush (second batch was an attempt at a more potent mix, started to crystalize before I ever sampled it) the 3rd batch I meticulously weighed out a handful of whole mushrooms all weighing within .1 of 1gram each (.9 -1.1). after a month they barely absorbed anything, they were like chewing on a mushroom and honey flavored shoe lace.
imo, the best way to take mushrooms is to crush your dose then wash down a few grams at a time with juice or any non-carbonated drink.

The only time I've ever enjoyed mushrooms it was fresh, in honey. Every single other time, bad trip. But that was due to many other factors as well, I am very much sure. But I don't know if it is a COMPLETE coincidence.
