Food and Tripping

I find that for tripping (doesnt matter the substance) the only foods I eat are fruits, vegetables, and nuts/seeds. I find that the bloating effect from less than optimal food (lots of salt, fat, excess sugars etc...) totally makes me feel uncomfortable due to the hyper-sensitization of my internal processes.
The only things I usually eat are mangoes (with lime juice, yum), oranges, strawberries, and if they are in season, cherries. Sometimes I will go to the farmers market and pick up some really tropical looking fruits like dragon fruit, passion fruit, star fruit etc... Any fruit is good really. Usually I will eat nothing but fruit on the day of the trip, and will more than likely just fast until I am in the midst of the journey. Nothing beats the taste of fruit when tripping, especially if I am quite hungry
For vegetables, I will usually pick up some nice lettuce (most likely romaine), and a bunch of good vegetables and make a crazy looking salad. I make a dressing using Hemp seed oil, organic apple cider vinegar, garlic and red pepper flakes. (Any one know of any edible oils that are black light responsive? That would be so damn cool )
I like using Hemp seed oil as it contains all the necessary fats the body needs. If I feel like I need some protein, I will have a glass of soy milk and/or some nuts and seeds. I become totally vegan when I am tripping. Also, I quite enjoy the process of cutting up ginger root and making a bigass pot of ginger tea with some lemon and honey to sip slowly as I return to this world. I have so many associations with ginger tea that every time I have a cup, I am transported back to that space and I remember the time spent there. Its quite neat actually, like a self induced flashback.
Afterwards though (first day after a full nights sleep, with acid thats usually 2 days later) I like to celebrate the trip with a big fuckin steak mmmmmmmmmm I usually like a nice big ribeye done nice and rare on the BBQ.
How do you approach food while tripping? Do you fast? What types of food do you enjoy?

hahah! nice post. :P
For over a decade I never ate whilst tripping and assumed it was just one of those thing that would never cross yrou mid. then by accident i happened across some food and IMO that "strange" stomach trippy feeling was hunger that didn't quite manifest itself due to all the other distraction going on with my senses.
But yeah, totally with you on the fruit. CHERRIES!!!!! oh cherries! I actually tried some very interesting crisps once but yeah, non fruit is only good fo rteh comedown when you get home after 8 hours or so and feel shattered and some nice warm burgers with humous, salad and ketchup and some drinks go down quite well. Or maybe some jacket potatoes.
Actually had a carrot and houmous sandwhich with eth crust cut off once. that was also quite nice.
But yeah, fruit's where its at. and maybe some icecream.

Why do people care about what you eat before a trip LOL. I eat/drink/never am prepared to trip and never have had a problem. Don't be scared of the drug, thats the only thing that affects your trip.

yeah I agree for LSD. ^^^ also am with the peopls who figure nausea is psychosematic as its just too small an amount to physically trigger anything IMO. (not belief, just opinion)
Shrooms can taste like gunk of the hughest order and although i've never purged its known to happen and isn't all too pleasant.
Also i've tripped on shrooms after drinking too much juice to wash them down and what could have potentially been a real mind blowing level fourish trip ended up being a trip inundated with neverending trips to teh loo peeing like a champ and taking ages doign so. Never again! always use cookies to take them down now.

fruit while tripping is godly. its just so perfect. it isnt hard to digest at all, and it tastes so amazing and leaves you feeling refreshed.
I remember i was tripping with my friend, and we didnt have money for food and we were at the local park. We stumbled across an orange on the ground that was in perfect condition, and damn was it delicious. It was sun ripened on the ground, and it was almost hot, but it was so good.

Fruit is nature's candy... I try to remember to chow down on apples and cranberries when I'm tripping.
