Naomi took a few bites and looked at Tina. "If we eat this, will we hallucinate? The news was saying that people in the southern region would take these hallucinogenic stuff every May or June of the year. I heard that people see all kinds of things when they're under hallucinogenic influence."

Tina laughed a little as she said, "If we don't mess around with it, there shouldn't be a problem." Rainie had found other kinds of mushrooms in the soil and asked, "Can these be eaten then?"

Tina nodded. "Yes, but these have to be cooked. If we eat them raw, we might get hallucinations."
