What I don't understand: if you look at the lab reports posted by the vendor, it will mention that it contains no alkaloids:

a) Why the hell would you buy this stuff, from a company callef "Shruumz", if it does not contain, e. g. psilocybin / psilocin? Best case, the product does absolutely nothing and you have been duped. Worst case, it does something, but based on a completely different substance / synthetic compound that you know nothing about.

b) If you get a lab report and test for amanita analytes, why is the test profile so narrow? Obviously, a different lab found something after the edibles turned out to be a huge health risk.

Even better, when I opened the lab report for a random product, all it had was results for cannabinoid testing, finding absolutely none - incredibly surprising for a product marketed as shroom edible. Why would a consumer expect or even be interested in cannabinoids in such a product?

Just a shitty company with highly shady business practices. People, don't buy edibles with research chemicals or analogs.

  • Thr questions posed here are somewhat rhetorical - I know they're exploiting a legal loophole. But, still: why endanger your health and ruin the experience like that?

It’s amanita, not advertised as psilocybin iirc. There are tons of “legal shrooms” that are just amanita

The lab reports show the products contained 4-AcO-DMT, a research chemical that is supposed to be metabolized to psilocin.

My kids bought some of these from the gas station. Is there a way to get a manufacturer refund?

I would just be happy if you can stop them from taking amanita. Depending on how old your kids are, it’s easy enough to get actual shrooms (or, even easier, grow them yourself)
