Freezing shrooms - Should they look like this?

For those who want to skip the subplot: ARE THESE SHROOMS OKAY TO EAT? THE GLAZE IS BECAUSE THEY ARE FROZEN, AS IS THE HAIR LOOKING STUFF
Well, you may have seen my thread about the shrooms which I weren't sure whether they were good or bad.
Well, if it couldn't get any worse, I accidentally froze them. I heard this reduces the potency - is this true?
They look a lot worse, but it's all blue - no black.
I was planning on just boiling up some soup and chucking them in, still frozen. Will that work? Will I even get CEV? I'm splitting it with a friend.








They smell like fungus, with a tiny hint of gym sock.
What's the worst that can happen? What shall I do with them? Keep in mind, I won't get my hands on any more shrooms for a very long time, and I've been wanting to try them for ages.
Any other advice would be appreciated.

I'm basing it more on whether they look alright to eat rathet than just because they're frozen.
They've been frozen for two days. They looked like this beforehand - http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/7977106/an/0/page/0
So I don't see how they could have rotted since then.

i dont understand why one would freeze them instead of drying them out.
unless you were trying to preserve them to take them fresh and they have only been in there for a day or two and they 'accidentally' froze..
then i dont see any reason not to eat them.. unless they were fcked up before you put them in there.

They did accidentally freeze. Please look at the pictures of them beforehand. I was thinking of drying them out now, but I think that might be a bad idea.
Could I just thaw them, chop them up, shove them in tea?

what makes you think i didn't look at the pictures? did you see my earlier post?
depends how long they were in there i think..
they look fuckin disgusting and i wouldn't eat them.. shrooms are bad enough fresh by themselves.. they dont need freezerburn on top of that..
if you want you can put them in tea, but they dont look like regular mushrooms..
next time, just dry them out.

"unless they were fcked up before you put them in there."
That just gave me the idea.
The only reason I'm stressing about it is because there won't be a 'next time' for a long fucking time. I'm talking like, a year maybe.

uh huh.. uh huh.. yes.
well would you rather spend that year sober or in the hospital.
i'm just saying.. they might possibly be safe to eat, but i personally wouldn't they look too jacked up. they aren't what i would think a mushroom would look like being in the fridge for..
..wait you have still yet to say how long they have been in there.

Also - how would you suggest I dry them? Just put them under a fan? Will they be dry by tommorow evening?

I don't understand why one needs to ask so many questions before ingesting their mushrooms. Just try them for crying out loud. Don't be dissuaded by people who say they would never eat those. Its just that some people are used to some quality stuff and have more to chose from. Granted, you may get a bit ill from them if you let them sit around and get moldy before freezing them. Just make some tea. That should kill any bacteria or unwanted fungi. Maybe even extract w/ some high proof alcohol.
Like I said, trial and error. split them w/ a friend. If nothing happens, tough. If you have a great time, well, great. Learn from experience, not what a bunch of strangers(myself included) say. Nothing will teach you better than the experience itself.
by the way, how did you get them into the country from Holland? You seem to have some balls to do that, so take the chance and eat the things already! What ever happened to drug taking = risk taking. Doesn't 'trying to know all the answers' diminish from the experience at all?
Sorry, I'm rambling. Have fun!

Just got them shoved in a suitcase - that's it.
What would you suggest I do to prepare them then - dry them?
I'm supposed to be eating them tommorow. I doubt I'm going to go through with it anyway - with all this speculation, I'll most likely have a bad trip.
I'm crushed, because it's 100% impossible to get shrooms here (I've been trying for years), and I'm not going to end up smuggling shrooms out of Holland again either.

I don't think its 100% impossible to find psilocybes anywhere. You just aren't talking to the right people. I do give you props for smuggling them out of Holland though, that's quite a ballsy move.

Moral of the story.
Dry fresh shrooms using a fan or desiccant chamber.
Freezing wet shrooms just turns into a mushy nasty mess.
