  • The ones I have smell like fruit loops razz It's actually a hallucinogen eh? But the dose to make you see stuff is dangerously close to the dose that will kill you. So make sure the kiddies stay away!

  • don't let anyone eat any of those..The phrase "Red as a beet, dry as a bone, blind as a bat, mad as a hatter" has been used to describe Jimson's effects, and it does a good job of summing them up. All parts of the plant are toxic, so pleasant effects are limited -- a big reason the plant is used only by novices.It causes dry mouth, dilated pupils, high temperature (but reduced sweating), and blurred vision. so not very pleasant, but very pretty to look at...
