There are in fact at least four common household spices and ingredients that are lying around your house that people are turning to in order to get high, believe it or not. However just like real drugs, these spices do not come without side effects and disadvantages.
The first spice or household food that can get you high is rye bread. However, rye grain has been found to sometimes be infected with a fungus called ergot which contains several psychoactive chemicals including ergotamine which is used to synthesise LSD. However, most modern farmers use a potassium chloride solution to clean their rye.
The second spice is one that you may have heard of. Nutmeg is rumoured to produce the same feelings that pot does such as hallucinations. However, many people who have apparently tried nutmeg compare it to a bout of a terrible flu. Other unwanted side effects include dizziness, paranoia, cotton mouth and a difficulty urinating.
The third is Sarpa Salpa, which is also known as sea bream. Although this fish’s skin is perfectly safe to eat, the head is where psychoactive chemicals have been known to gather. The hallucinations that the head of a Sarpa Salpa can induce have often been described as being terrifying.
The final food on the list is poppy seeds. As you may already know, poppy seeds on bagels are exactly the same as the ones that fuel the opium drug industry. Everyday bagels with poppy seeds can therefore contain tiny amounts of the opium alkaloids morphine and codeine. So if you eat enough of them, you could (in theory) get high just like you would off smoking pot. However, one would have to consume an extraordinary number of bagels to get a true buzz.
There are also quite few other common foods that you can use to get high. Just do a Google search and see what you come up with.
