Head to the kitchen to make your next psilocybin experience unforgettable Magic mushrooms offer so many marvels, from transformative healing to excitement. One thing they are not known for is flavor. David Connell's quest to make psilocybin palatable led him to develop recipes that integrate small, measured quantities of shrooms into tasty food and drink. Stop gnawing on bitter, fibrous stalks and begin your journey with a calming, pleasant snack or sip. These healthy, delicious recipes are lactose-free, with gluten-free substitutions throughout, and have no added sugars. Photographs and illustrations will inspire your explorations of food, fungi, and consciousness.

Psilocybin and humanity have a rich, ancient, and deeply connected relationship. Wherever man goes, psilocybin containing mushrooms follow—or perhaps it’s the other way around. We can trace this co-evolutionary bond from the earliest prehistoric cave paintings to modern studies that explore psilocybin’s potential as a treatment for depression, addiction, and more. My personal experiences with psilocybin, during my post-military battles with depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), engendered a deep respect and driving curiosity to explore and share what knowledge I can about this amazing fungal ally of humanity. This desire to explore an ancient relationship—how we found it, how we lost it, and most importantly how we can regain it—were the driving factors in the creation of this book. As all mushroom fans know, eating little fun-guys can be a trying experience. As much as we love and appreciate them, few enjoy the sensation of chewing on dried out, fibrous fungi stalks. This fun, psychedelic cookbook explains how to embark on your journey with food and fungi with small, measured quantities of shrooms into your food and drink.
