Well I know about taking my shrooms. I would say tea is the most effective way. I knew some shroom growers at one time & they were the best I ever had. But now I just go hunt for them. Put some water in a pan with the shrooms & boil for a few minutes. Then slurp it down. Although alot of people I know do not like the texture of wet slimy shrooms, but it's worth it. Tea will hit you the fastest acting way to take them. Eating them just takes longer to trip. Where in live (FL) fresh shrooms are legal so I pick them all season long. I must say I love picking then all most more than taking them. I usually just end up giving alot of them away. So if anyone want to take a mushroon hunting vacation then come to FL or go to OR. OR has some the most powerfull wild mushrooms in the US. Either way you take them it doesn't taste all that great, but they are not bad either. More than worth the result. Hop this helps.
HAPPY TRIPPING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
