I want something that tastes better

I am about to try my hand at growing Pans. (I'm not above begging for tips and best practices for Pans.) I started wondering about how they would taste and if they would taste much different than a cube. That got me to wondering. Is there a magic mushroom that tastes way better than Cubes? I think cubes are bearable when they are fresh and young. In other words when they are not fully matured into a mushroom with a flattened out cap and picked long before the veils break. It seems like the older they get, and once dried, they get pretty unpleasant to eat. I've made the teas and and ground the powders and put them in pills and such but I was just wondering if there is a magic mushroom that tastes good the way edible ones do. Is it the psilocin or psilocybin that make them taste so bad? I can't believe that because I've done the 'crystals of the gods' tek and gotten some really good results with only a hint of mushroom flavor and the results are potent. I'd be willing to even try working with wood lovers again to find a tasty magic mushroom. It doesn't even have much potency. I eat button mushrooms and enkenoi like they are candy. I make killer soups with shiitake. Portabella are soooooooooo good in spaghetti sauce. Please dear Mushroom God let there be a shroom that tastes as good.

That's a very subjective topic. In my opinion wood lovers, such as Cyans and Azures taste even worse than Cubes, though a lot different. You probably know who VERY, VERY old walnuts taste (the half rotten ones, you spit out, after tasted them). Multiply that by ten and you might a an idea of the taste wood lovers have. I think cubes taste rather good; almost like pumpkin seeds. But you're right, old cubes, taste quiet moldered! Pans, do not just smell like VERY old sport socks, but also taste worse. Actually they taste just like cubes, but A LOT more extreme!
In my opinion, that's one of prices you have to pay for your adventures. I always hate this part (especially because I mostly trip on Ps. Cyans), but it's just a short moment, so I don't really give a shit.
Just mix up your mushrooms with a little chocolate pudding and you'll be fine. Well, it's kind of fucked up feeling to to feel all these chunks in the pudding but better than the taste of pure ones 
Ah, BTW: slerotia is said to taste a lot better than Cubes etc.!

Next time you have a bunch of fresh cubes, cut off the stems and set them aside for another day. Take the caps and rub a little blue cheese or ranch salad dressing into the gills. Rub olive oil on the outside of the cap. Add salt and pepper to taste, then grill outside on the bbq until done(gill side up), usually only a few minutes. when the dressing in the gills starts to boil, it's done. It's hard to beat cubes for good taste when cooked. When raw, they're nasty as hell, just like any raw mushroom.
The heat will degrade them slightly, but not much. Cook up about 50 grams of fresh caps and you'll be happy. RR

I'm all for that one! I usually steep my cubes in hot water then use the water to make instant lipton lemon flavored sweetened tea. I just ad about another teaspoon extra of the powder to sweeten it even more. Pour it over Ice and your golden.

I ate my cubes for the first time in like 6 years last weekend - AWESOME, AWESOME time!!! By myself too...
Anyway, I had to eat them with peanut butter and near the toliet because of the idea of the taste. The taste wasn't too bad but how it felt when I bit down... Ugh!
Peanute butter helped a lot! 45 minutes later, I was taking a shower and I found a new world. haha
