- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

Well, you don't just chow down on something strange. You take a tiny nibble, see what happens. Rinse and repeat with larger bits.
What I want to know is how some groups figured out how to eat stuff that requires complex preparation to remove toxicity. How do you iterate on that?!
In the course of a few days... takes a while for the poison to start working.
Not really. For example, even the worst mushrooms are only going to give you a tummy ache from a tiny nibble. And that's going to happen within a couple of hours. Not like 1/4 of a berry is going to drop you dead 3 days later.
No, I meant as in, take a bite, wait a few hours take a bigger one, wait a few hours more... my point was, the sampling process might take days.
