ive been wantin to try shrooms for a while now but i cant find any dealers in my area thats sellin but luckily i found sum Amanita Muscaria at work but i dont know if there safe i found this site
http://redangels.yage.net/ which makes them out to be the best kind of shrooms but then i found this on another site
Avoid Fly agaric ( Amanita Muscaria )
A lot of people trip on Fly Agaric and call them magic mushrooms as well. Click HERE to search Erowid for more information.
However, don't confuse psilocybe mushrooms with Amanita Muscaria (fly agaric). There is no psilocybin nor psilocyn in Fly Agaric and we don't consider it a 'real' magic mushroom.
The (red with white dots) Amanita Muscaria can cause a very unpleasent experience and health problems. Potential symptoms of Muscarine, an active alkaloid of Fly Agaric and other Amanita's, followed after ingestion as described by The Merck Index are: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache and bronchospasm. With larger doses: acrimation, incontinence, bracycardia, hypotension and shock. Ibotanic acid, also an active substance of the Amanita's may cause brain damage as described by various authors on Public Medline. Muscimole is another active alkaloid in Amanita Muscaria. Its symptoms after oral intake are described by Richard Schultzes and Albert Hofmann as confusion, disoreantation in situation and time perception, disturbance of visual function and hearing, muscle twitching, weariness, fatigue and sleep. Psychic performance and learning are diminished. Jochem Gartz, a well known mushroom specialist warnes in his book 'Magic Mushrooms around the world' that Amatoxins contained in the Amanita's may be lethal!
What's more! Amanita's are legal everywhere, even in the USA. Would the drug tsars keep a drug legal that is really nice?
and now i dont know what to think has anyone tryed them and how good are they compared to other shrooms????

Man that quote made them out to be quite bad, so I wouldn't get them if I were you. I thought that shrooms were legal though, I mean, they are from where I come from (London, UK) so normal pyclobin containing mushrooms shouldn't be so hard to come by..?

I live in Canada and I'm not too sure about legality here... I've never seen anything on the news about Shroom busts, but damn they're easy to get
. Damn near every dealer down here has shrooms.
I would have to agree with dj, however... I've done shrooms before, loved 'em (mixed with porridge, because they're really bitter to eat straight up). Perhaps get them and maybe take 'em fairly slowly, like half a gram every half hour until you start to trip. But then again, that's only if you're absolutely paranoid.

Amanita Muscaria does not contain psylocybe...from what i heard its really dangerous and totally not worth it. dont touch it

People die from consuming amanita muscaria mushrooms, they aren't the type of shroom that you want to be eating.

i live in the deep south.
all of the shrooms yall get up north probally more than likely come from down here.....
and the ones i have grown the best liking to.... are the DARK ones...
not really any light color on any part of the shroom.
i love them.

Did you not even read that thing in your post? The fact that the first sentence was ''Avoid Fly agaric ( Amanita Muscaria )'' is a pretty good clue that this is not a good plan. It then goes on to explain the effects, ''nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache and bronchospasm.'' And that's just in small doses. And it says it right there ''Amanita's may be lethal!''
Exited yet?
Find some proper shrooms, or get a growing kit and do it yourself.
