First truffle tonight

I'm planning on eating my first truffle tonight, a home-grown 0.66g stone, empty stomach, about a half hour before dinner. Is 0.66g a decent starting dose, or is it too weak/strong? Thanks!

Dried cubes? It's a good place to get your feet wet, for sure.

The stone got a little dry over the week, but in theory, that shouldn't affect the intensity too much? Anyway, I chewed up the .66g stone, drank some water, then had some dinner half an hour later. The effect was well delayed, just a mellow feeling an hour or more after dinner, not really a trip, and I slept pretty well... Next time, probably 3g or 4g as suggested here.

Vice have some great videos, especially Hamilton 
But that video link, that’s the one where they discuss when Holland banned mushrooms: because of mushroom tourists from abroad. One bloke killed his dog with scissors, appr3ntly because he was on mushrooms, then a teenage girl drowned, and that was the final incident after which mushrooms became illegal in Holland.
Obviously I’m sad for the dog that lost its life, but please tell me, the dogs death had FUCK ALL to do with mushrooms.....

Wherever Holland is on these issues, the US will always be centuries behind them with their self-defeating laws. 18,000 tonnes of truffles per year? Now THAT'S mind-blowing!

Normal dose for fresh truffles is about 15grams. The doses you guys mention will not do anything lol.
15grams fresh is how they sell them in Amsterdam and they do not want people tripping to hard there first time around of course.
Start with 10 grams and eat another 5 after 90 min if you feel like it

You were right! I ate 4.4 grams of fresh truffles, barely got anywhere, was just on the edge of minor visuals, but it was pleasant and relaxing. I actually got a much more interesting trip from 0.85 grams of sliced, dried PE blobs a few weeks ago. Ok, lesson learned!
