And Mother Earth smiled and welcomed me into her family. And I played with all the children in joy and peace forever as we all tumbled about.

That works out to over $6,000 per ounce! All for something that has to be eaten soon or its garbage. Go figure.

I do like a good fungus; but the several dollar a pack variety will do me fine. I would rather buy the 300 dollars slab; if I had 330,000 to spend on a fungus. Question; what do you do to the cook who burns a 330,000 dollar fungus while making it into a meal?

I'm not paying that much unless I win lotto and it's exceedingly & uniquely psychoactive. Just kidding. I wouldn't pay that much.
