    “Edible” doesn’t just mean something can be consumed. It means it can be consumed safely. Otherwise, anything that can be swallowed would be “edible.”

      Meanwhile, in other circles, edible means it gets you high, so they’re kinda onto something there. Though honestly, I’ll pass on anything that makes me puke and gives me the shits. It’s not that important to me to see a pink elephant when I look at my dog.

        One of those preparations is “filtered through a shaman’s (or in some cases, a reindeer’s) kidneys.”

        Yes, Inuits would sometimes drink the urine from a shaman who had eaten A. Muscaria, and I have read (but not from a scholarly source so I’m not swearing to it) that in Siberian tribes they would do the same thing but with a reindeer doing the filtering.
