The taste of magic mushrooms...

Recently, my BF and me ate some EQ' s. (Psilocybe Cubensis, Ecuadorian Strain). He doesn' t like the taste of shrooms at all, and he said, the EQ' s had a specialy foul taste. I asked him to describe the taste, and he said "like wet cardboard mixed with old tennis shoes".
I didn' t know if I should laugh or puke...
When professional mycologists define a mushroom, they also describe the smell and the taste of the species. But I never saw a description of the taste of Psilocybe Cubensis by a mycologist. So I wonder how the shrooms taste for YOU. Please describe in your own words.
Thanks!

Yeah, it does taste like dog shit. But after a while you become accustomed to the taste, and you start to enjoy it. I guess its kinda along the lines of pavlov's whole conditioned reflex stuff.

Dried, they taste like newspaper, not good or bad really. Fresh they taste like the spawn of hell and all that is evil. IMHO
the funny part is dried button mushrooms, the kind you would put on a pizza for a 6 year old (you know, the kind you get in the grocery stores) taste like newspaper too. weird

do you think if you ate something that burnt your tongue before you gobbled shrooms, that you would succeed in not being able to taste anything??

That's funny. They kind of reminded me of sunflower seeds.

Dried, they taste like cardboard and that coal-water shti they pump your stomache with. It takes more effort for me to keep em down than 5 shots of Everclear. Fresh, they aren't too bad. At least fresh ones don't stick to your teeth. BTW, any shrooms with honey = great. Go Aztecs!

I just put honey(LOTS of honey) and a little bit of jam on a small bun...then put my dried shrooms on both halves of the bun. Cover with more honey...and put together. I cannot notice a taste difference at all. Tastes like a honey and jam sandwhich. i've also tried honey and peanut butter(only a little bit)...tasted just like a regualr peanut butter and honey sandwhich. And every time i've done it...effects start in about 30 minutes. It's the only way i'll eat shrooms. works good

I wonder if its just the growing medium that makes cubes taste bad ie the rubery taste could come from the vermiculite. Also has any one tried naturaly grown cubes from outside and if so do they taste diffrent. But i reccon the best tasting shrooms are Liberty caps nice and earthy.

shrooms are going to taste bad period- unless you enjoy the taste- my convenient way of digestion is to buy some of Little Debbies NUTTY BUTTY BARS (yum) and take a bite or two then toss a few shrooms out of your pile and into your mouth, chew chew chew and drink a carbonated drink to get those little pieces stuck in your teeth out The NB Bars cover the texture and taste of shrooms, its great

Sure it might me easier to gobble the shrooms down, but can you imagine how a raw, irritated toungue will effect your trip?

Thanks a lot for all your answers. I just thought it would be funny to read about the different sensations of taste. I don' t like the taste of the shrooms very much. Specialy the Cubes taste like sweaty socks to me. And I must agree with jezu, the Liberty Caps taste less bad than the Cubes. The Azures are a little bitter and have no bad aftertaste.
I am astonished how many of you like the taste or at least don' t dislike it. An old Mescalero said: "If you eat the peyote, you taste yourself. The purer you become, the sweeter it will taste." Maybe it is the same thing with the shrooms.

Fresh cubies from outdoors taste great....a little dab of ranch dressing, and down the hatch! For dried mushies, try Rice Krispie Bars to kill the taste. Take a big bite of the snack, pop in a few dried mushies, and chew 'em up. All you can taste is the sweetness of the Rice Krispie bar. Works wonders. I don't mind the taste of dried cubies much, but the texture leaves a lot to be desired. Like chewing up crepe paper..... Course, putting 'em in capsules eliminates bad taste altogether

I think cubes taste horrid. I couldn't compare the taste to anything else I have tried, Id have to say they have a unique flavor. This past sunday I blended up 30 grams of fresh picked Lipa yai's (mostly aborts) with OJ concentrate and some ice cubes... It almost killed the taste of the mushrooms. Needless to say, I was in a different world for about 5 hours.

In reply to:

It's always funny when someone says something like this, makes me wonder, have you actually tasted sweaty socks before? Sorry, I'll stop being stupid now

I agree that they taste like cardboard, and to all of you who said they taste like dog shit, I will just have to take your word on it!
