VitoRobles ( @VitoRobles@lemmy.today ) English5•26 days agoWait am I supposed to just motion the mushroom in and out repeatedly then once it shrivels, the job is done?
BastingChemina ( @BastingChemina@slrpnk.net ) English17•26 days agoThe Roquefort (French blue cheese) is made from the mold that grows on rye bread.
So even the moldy bread, in the right condition, can become a delicacy.
interpolate ( @interpolate@lemm.ee ) English3•25 days agoOn typing this out, I’m suddenly concerned about this being offensive or blatantly false. I never applied critical thought to the story before, as I’m pretty sure I was told it as a relatively young, and more relevantly gullible, man.
Is it true that this mold played a role in the “witches ride broomsticks” stereotype?
edit: Removed redundant word.
faythofdragons ( @faythofdragons@slrpnk.net ) English3•25 days agoIt sounds like a few different things got mashed together there. Ergot is a hallucinogenic fungus that grows on rye, and is speculated to be the cause of some of the witch panics. It’s not the same fungus found in Roquefort, but it is what they use to make LSD.
Witches flying is hypothesized to be entheogen use, since a common side effect is feelings of floating, flying, or otherwise ‘being high’.
interpolate ( @interpolate@lemm.ee ) English3•25 days agoAh, I looked it up and accepted “rye bread” without actually reading the name of the fungus, so you’re probably right about that part.
The broomstick myth that I’ve heard does indeed involve substance abuse to achieve an altered state of mind. The broomstick specific part was because apparently some women would put the substance on the end of a broomstick and apply it, shall we say, internally, thinking that this would achieve greater (or perhaps faster) effect. I don’t know whether entheogen was the material in question.
As initially mentioned, I make no claim that this is true, only that I read it a long time ago and never really questioned it.
edit: Forgot to thank you for the clearly knowledgeable response!
faythofdragons ( @faythofdragons@slrpnk.net ) English4•25 days agoI don’t know whether entheogen was the material in question.
En-theo-gen, where ‘theo’ is the same as ‘theology’, roughly means ‘to commune with god’, so it’s any psychoactive substance used religiously. It covers everything from the wine in christian communion to a witch’s psychoactive sybian, haha.
Forgot to thank you for the clearly knowledgeable response!
Any time!

Umbrias ( @Umbrias@beehaw.org ) English4•26 days agoBread mold is not one universal thing, while certain molds may be more common, without doing involved identification you will not be able to determine the species and therefore safety of bread mold. Even if the majority of the time it is a safe species, you should not be knowingly risking it.
VitoRobles ( @VitoRobles@lemmy.today ) English3•26 days agoIt’s as harmful as picking up a random bug and eating it.
Which means: you might die. Or you might not.
Trusting the internet to give you the answer here as the final defacto answer… Maybe not the best.
SharkEatingBreakfast ( @SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz ) English1•25 days agoSorry, my plethora of mycologist friends are non-existent.
I go to Lemmy to get crowd-sourced information from people’s personal experiences. From the looks of it, people are saying “yeah maybe don’t do that. Risky.” I’ll believe them! Amd the reasoning behind them seems sound, as well.
Better than asking bots on F×cebook or whatnot.
