Are there any good chasers for this stuff!

I just had my first Pedro trip this past weekend and it was amazing. I will be posting my trip report shortly, it's pretty long though. Anyway...the one downfall of pedro is the taste of cactus juice. It's, imo, the worst tasting substance on this planet (at least compared to what I have so far tasted in my life). I chased it with apple grape juice, peanut salt, and cigarettes. I now can never have those things again without tasting cactus. It's crazy. Anyone have any suggestions?

Peacefulness,

I chased it with applesauce and hot chocolate, worked pretty decent. Of course, the catus flavored burps were fantastic.

 

unsweetened grapefruit juice with a splash of lime juice worked okay. no matter what though, if you are eating this shit it's going to be pretty awful.

 

I second the grapefruit juice. That worked great for me.

 

Ugh. I could see grapefruit working, but it tastes foul to me also. So maybe chase with grapefruit juice and then something else (water), if you are like me and can't palate grapefruit.

 

Chasers are for pussies.

 

when i ate it i cut it up fine and put in in lime jello. it actually tasted exactly like lime jello with fruit peices in it, but the downside is that it pretty much doubles the amount of stuff you have to eat. it will work, but only if you have a big capacity in your stomach.

i didnt manage to eat enough to have more than slightly above threshold effects, but like i said, it did actually taste good.

 

diet coke... I used it with all of my trips. Wipes the taste right out. Another plus is that it also seems to settle my stomach, but that might just work for me...

 

What if one took the idea for jello, and changed the recipe to include cactus juice instead of water....then you could keep the amount eaten low, and swallow the jello like shots. Mmm. [mental note made]

 

agree with polecat, the cola cuts the taste and has the added advantage of being settling for your stomach - it inly helps a bit though ; im know of no pain free way to getb through the first couple of hours...

 

I also used diet coke for all my cactus trips, and I never had much nausea or problems keeping it down.

 

I just accept that the bad taste is part of the deal.

 

i made jello once... i figured i could let it be a little grainy so i took out half the powder, and was about to pour half the water in, only i didnt pour half, i poured it all, so now i just had this inconsistant gelatinous grainy goopy mess that took me an hour and 45 minutes to consume... definately not as easy as wrapping up powder or tar in half of a dual-ply toilet paper and just tossing them down the hatch =P

 

Don't eat stuff.Well at least a lot. It ruins the quality of the trip.The lime jello does seems like a good idea that Nesta mentioned. I have to admit.Unless of course you are a vegetarian.Eat an apple perhaps something light if you don't like the taste. I haven't meant anyone who does like the taste .I find putting raw cut up pieces in the freezer reduces the slimy bad taste.Citric fruits seemed to increase the quality of the trip I've found.I've never done anything other than eat it raw myself.

 

try juicing the skins and dark underflesh. mix with equal parts V8 juice and pound! I recommend always using a 12oz plastic water bottle. it helps get it past the taste buds. and always remember to drink cool! it is harder when the potion is warm. e!
