Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a letter to food manufacturers that Amanita muscaria ( A. muscaria ), its extracts, and certain of its constituents (muscimol, ibotenic acid, and muscarine) are not authorized for use as ingredients in conventional food. A. muscaria and its constituents have been used in foods intended to have hallucinogenic effects, sometimes marketed as “psychedelic edibles”, “legal psychedelics” or “mushroom edibles”. After reviewing the available information about A. muscaria and its constituents, the FDA concluded that they do not meet the safety standard for use in food and that their use as food ingredients may be harmful.
