Other - Bogus LSD "Synth" (Oranges!)

[alpine]

SWIM was told of an "easy LSD synth"... Now, SWIM is am not a chemist, but SWIM is also not stupid. SWIM knew this was bogus immediately, but was then hit with a similar statement from SWIM's Fathter.

Here is what the first person told SWIM...

"Get an aluminum pan, 1/4 in thick copper wire, oranges and rye bread. Mix the rye and the oranges until it is like a paste. Put the mixture in the aluminum pan, suspend the copper wires longway over the pan by laying it over the top with a sort of "Smile" type arch that hangs down close to the orange / rye mixture. Leave it in the dark for 30 days (SWIM thought that part reminded him of a bogus recipe for a different drug) and there will be crystals formed on the copper. Scrape the crystals and mix with 8oz of water and you have "Liquid Acid"

SWIM know's that is bogus. But then SWIM's dad said if SWIM lets an orange and some rye that is mixed sit in a dark place for a week and then SWIM eats a spoonful (yuck) then he will trip hard.

Then SWIM Saw a video on the internet about a kid tripping after eating a rotten orange (yuck)

SWIM believes all this is bogus, and if the stuff would make one trip it def isn't LSD... But why the heck has SWIM heard this similar story from so many different people? Do oranges and rye make a psychedelic mold? SWIM didn't want me to post this just to waste space, He was curious as to why this has been mentioned so many times recently to him.
