I want to lick The Elephant's Foot.
This is an interesting one!
A glass of mercury, it looks like it tastes delicious.
Sooo elemental mercury. Not absorbed well in the GI tract. I had a patient who took time cracking open thermometers from boilers for a while and then attempted to drink it mixed with some coffee to commit suicide. We show up since he called 911 and now wanted to go to the hospital. Call poison control for recommendations for local hospitals since this isn't common and i don't know what hospitals can handle this thing. Poison control cites that it isn't well absorbed, if at all, in the GI tract. I was pretty surprised.
So really you could drink it and find out the taste with very small if any repercussions.
Ya know, just saying.
Didn't uh.. something like Lewis and Clarke..
Didn't they use mercury based laxatives, and that was used to track their path?

Whatever the most poisonous mushroom is
Probably amanita phalloides or amanita virosa
Joke's on you. I've been slowly building up an immunity to iocaine powder for years.
The fly agaric mushroom. I wanna see if it makes me taller.
You can eat those if you prepare them correctly. Prepare for a cozy experience if you dose it right. shroomery
