Why does everyone hate the taste of mushrooms so much?
    #26415922 - 01/04/20 11:52 AM (4 years, 25 days ago)

My experience eating dried cubensis mushrooms is that they actually taste pretty decent, like a snack

I’m naturally prone to nausea and alcohol always makes me feel nauseous but shrooms never do...

Some people have a wider range of tastes they can perceive.

I read that people with a smaller range enjoy black coffee, people with a wider range think black coffee is too bitter.

If genetics says some people have better hearing than others, better eyesight than others, why wouldn't we also say that some people taste more/less than others?

edit:
For me, I don't really think it's a taste thing, it's more a texture thing. I can't even eat a microdose the size of my pinky nail without retching over the sink half the time

Well I’ve always been an epicure, but it’s not like I don’t find some foods disgusting. For the record, I dislike black coffee...

Maybe wet shrooms would taste disgusting, but my experience with dried shrooms is that the texture isn’t dissimilar from an old, non-chewy candy

IMO yeah, the taste is super nasty, texture is whatever but the taste makes me retch. Preferred consumption method is tea, chugged as fast as humanly possible. Once it's in my tummy there's no nausea or any problem.

As for why, I really couldn't say.

For me, cubes, cyans, azzies and ovoids taste horrifically bitter in an odd, metallic way that makes the front of my face unpleasantly tingly (kind of like an anxious feeling, but like, with the sensation of taste added to that), Fresh or dry I get that taste, and even thinking about it makes me feel that sensation a little bit. Stones (sclerotia) just tasted downright sour to me, but it wasn't as bad as the flavor I get off of most Psilocybes I've eaten. Alan has been on record saying that if you bred/gene edited out the psilocybin that you could sell cubes as an edible , best paired with a glass of RoundUp (joke) , but I personally have never had them in any application where they'te tasted anywhere near "good" (besides chocolates).

When I first started tripping I could tolerate the taste but as the years have gone by, I can’t tolerate the taste any more. Especially fresh ones. I mask the shrooms with strong juice or consume them as tea.

IME when I didn't know where there shrooms came from, I always gagged and didn't like the taste. When I started making my own and could eat them fresh or warm out of the dehydrator, I started to enjoy tolerate the taste more.

I've never been able to handle the taste. For me they just taste like the worst combination of nuts, dirt and twigs and it makes me want to vomit. I use tea every time

Lucky.

Not everyone hates the taste of shrooms. But I do find them to hard to eat, so I eat them with food. They are pretty strong in taste that I don't particularly like.

But some people I know have no issue eating them and some even love the taste. Its pretty trippy how you get both sides of the spectrum with taste.

Enjoy those shrooms, snack away :cheers: :mushroom:

Dried cubes remind me of chewing sunflower seeds as a kid. I also love the taste of stones. Especially the acidic after taste. I'm kinda weird.

I'm working on a AA+ grow right now. I plan on cooking with them and documenting some recipes.

I swear I could easily eat 100g of the stuff like out of a chips bag

Maybe on my deathbed when I won’t have to live traumatized afterwards :P

Super lucky!

As Roger Rabbit used to say, "Eat till you're full!". :lol:

Ive noticed for me, the more frequently I eat them, the worst they taste. It sounds like its just the opposite for you!

I have never eaten them, for me they are the “Brussels sprout” of the mushroom world! So I always cook up a tea with boiling water and lemon juice for 20 minutes. When it is cool I neck it down in one then followmthat by rinsing the glass with orange juice.,it’s all over in unden5 seconds and the orange gets rid of the taste. Don’t get me wrong, lemon juice is a pretty rank drink butntogether with the mushies it seems drinkable.

I rarely ever get heartburn from the lemon in the tea, and the nausea is vastly reduced. And the come up is so darn fast......

So tea all the way: masks the taste, reduces discomfort, and reduces come up anxiety (because the come up is quicker).

Mush love,
DJ Ed

I was that weird kid growing up that automatically like "weird shit" like mushrooms, fish, and weird spices with no convincing required lol.

Mushies have never been a texture issue for me! Ground beef, though? THAT'S a different story.

I watched Alan Rockefeller's talk on Youtube and he mentioned he cooks them. So I cooked mine once and I think I will probably do it again.

I cut up broccoli and fried them in olive oil, added some onion. Then once cooked and some burned pieces, I added the mushrooms to the pan. I think added heavy whipping cream and butter and simmered for a little bit. Couldn't taste the mushrooms at all and had an excellent trip. I think next time I will add a little less cream as it was pretty heavy on my stomach. But regardless, highly potent and a great time.

More props to you if you can eat mushrooms straight up and think of them as a "snack":lol: I literally will gag every piece down, hold my breath, plug my nose.. watery eyes.. the whole thang(no wonder my ex gf hates me):lol:

ANYWAY - it's terrible IMO. But hey, to each their own. If I'm going to eat them, I make sure to have a chocolate bar or something. Scarfing down an 8th+ with just water is torture. But, it all pays off in the end.
