Mushroom edible

A mushroom edible, also known as a psychedelic mushroom edible or hallucinogenic mushroom edible and sometimes as "legal shrooms", is a food item that may contain hallucinogens associated with those in psychoactive mushrooms, such as psilocybin mushrooms or Amanita muscaria mushrooms. They include chocolate bars and gummies, among others.

Mushroom edibles have become increasingly popular in the United States in the 2020s. They exist in a legal gray area, and may or may not be illegal depending on the ingredients. One mushroom edibles brand, Diamond Shruumz, has been linked to hundreds of poisonings, including deaths. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned consumers not to buy or eat mushroom edibles. In addition, the FDA explicitly banned Amanita muscaria ingredients in food products in the United States in late 2024. The FDA is currently evaluating the use of Amanita muscaria and its constituents in dietary supplements, reminding manufacturers to ensure their ingredients meet safety standards and encouraging them to consult the Office of Dietary Supplement Programs with any questions.
