@@vardekpetrovic9716 Murklor are tasty in my opinion as a food mushroom, you just need to prepare them correctly. Regarding Urea and the shrooms, from what I could read it is similar to the same effect of slättopskivlingar with Flugsvamp (red fly agaric) too in terms of the Urea making the effects stronger & also destroying a lot of the more deadly poisons in the red fly agarig and it has been said to be used by various peoples as such (not only in the nordic countries but also outside by a rather long list of peoples that found out the about the psychedelic aspect of the shroom).

the city i live in used to plant datura (angel trumpet) on boulevards because we sand and salt in the winter and that kills everything, except hardy plants like datura. but, alas, local bored teens ate the seeds and poisoned themselves and now, there is no more datura being planted. i think its safe to assume, much like bored teens today, in the past, bored teens would be eating all sorts of mushrooms and seeds 😂😂😂😂

great video, im always fascinated by the traditions of other countries, specially one so underrated as Sweden

[@theculturedjinni]

I am glad you liked it and it is always fun to present these rather unknown (outside of Sweden) things!👍

Swedes creating Christmas as an excuse to eat magic mushrooms...checks out.

[@theculturedjinni]

👍🤣 Indeed it does! 🇸🇪

@@vardekpetrovic9716 Yes this is true, it is interesting that they have actually legally banned the use & trade of "slättopskivling" due to its drug usage unlike our red fly agaric. It is not a ban I think they can easily enforce though since slättopskivling is a naturally occurring mushroom. It is also pretty interesting how differently certain plants (such as your mentioned example of potatoes ) and fungi express themselves if they are planted in the north or the south of our country, shows just how much the soil & sun light difference have an impact upon their expression and traits.

@@vardekpetrovic9716 Those are banned due to the Swedish general drug policy. Regarding Tornedalen, yes it is a surprisingly productive place due to its soil, though the weather/climate is the issue but it has mostly been solved by green houses as you state.

ive long been fond of the "allergic reactions" i get from mushrooms 😋😛😜

[@theculturedjinni]

Well with this mushroom you will get more than just an allergic reaction!😏😉

@@theculturedjinni filtering it through cattle or what have you, sure is an interesting solution to the problem. im glad that "triple filtered vodka" utilizes a.... slightly different method of filtration

[@theculturedjinni]

@@beepboop204 Indeed, I do not think it would have been that popular otherwise😝

[@larrywave]

Yeah it was quite popular during my schooling and that's not that long ago

[@theculturedjinni]

👍 I bet this video really brought back the memories of the craziness that oneself and others used to do right?
