Over here in washington they are quite enjoyable, if the proper preparatory and cooking precautions are taken into practice. However, I haven't done so in years. Not my cup of tea :). Thanks for the input guys.

Very awesome! Love these things, but make sure you don't eat them. You get more stomach ache than psychedelic experience, which is what an Asian variety of these are said to give you. Great collection!
