Well, bananas are rich in tryptamine.
To all the naysayers: Have you ever actually tried it? Ever tried to make a freebase? Ever conducted a bioassay?
Didn't think so.

Why are you going to try it?
It's a very well known myth, and it's very well known that it IS a myth. You're just going to be pumping carcinogens into your lungs for no reason.

I'd go with Bull Plop.
If bananas got you high, you'd be seeing a lot more people smoking them or whatnot.

They also contain dopamine and norepinephrine.
I bet you could catch some sort of natural buzz from banana peels. Maybe buzz is a strong word though, natural antidepressant could be better. From the limited research I just did I think it would take about 5 peels. But you have to keep in mind the 1/2 life of dopamine is about 2 minutes.
You could smoke it for this dopamine buzz (but couldn't you get the same effects from a cigarette?)
It would be interesting to see the results on eating them though.

The peels are said to be soaked in strychnine (or an analogue) in order to prevent molding. I know drugs have been cut with it intentionally but not for what purpose.
I haven't been able to verify that the whole plant contains THC.

It could just be me, but I am very skeptical that the FDA would allow a powerful poison to be used as a preservative.
It's possible some drugs are cut with strychnine, but that's very bad business, and dealers who did that would not get very far, especially if their clients started to die!
And lastly, lol, the only plant known to man to contain THC is...drum roll please...weed.
Sorry to shit all over your post man, no harm meant

A mod should lock this thread, there shouldn't even be any debate, I think it went from a joke to an open thread for misinformation.
