I think there are a few examples of tripping being the result of poisoning. Mushrooms, various cacti...

The reason mescalin makes you puke is not because it does a body good.

Can't comment on mescalin though, only tried cb, shrooms and hbw in the trippy part of the spectrum...

Some would say the puke part is part of the cleansing, more spiritual than physical. Comparing shrooms to alcohol is very unfair. One is a spiritual plant, one is poison.

Pish. Once in a while, a drink is just the right elixer for a conversation or a mood change with a new friend. It doesn't deserve top billing, and the other drugs don't deserve to be so screwed, but it does have a deserved place in the human experience. Calling it mere 'poison' misses the mark for me.
