magic mushroom
Psilocybin-containing toadstool
Magic mushroom refers to any of various fungi containing psilocybin, a compound that produces hallucinations and altered perception when ingested.
The term covers several species, most commonly *Psilocybe cubensis*.
Users typically eat them dried or brewed as tea: We found magic mushrooms growing in the cow pasture.
Also called shrooms.
