What is this legal magic mushroom?

Even if you haven’t heard of the Amanita Muscaria, which is also known as Fly Agaric, or Fly Amanita, you’d likely recognize the iconic design. It’s the red & white-spotted mushroom that makes you big in Super Mario Bros. 

Turning Leaf is now stocking Boomers, an Amanita Muscaria Mushroom gummy created by our family brand, Foundry Nation. Because of its psychoactive effects, Amanita Muscaria is often lumped into a broad category of magic mushrooms, however, Amanita Muscaria’s unique state of changing compounds, muscimol, and ibotenic acid, brings an entirely different experience.

Please Eat Responsibly

This product is known to have psychoactive effects. With any new-to-you gummies we recommend starting low & slow, with 1 gummy. Do not drive a vehicle or operate heavy machinery. People who are pregnant or have a medical condition should consult their physician before use. Keep out of reach of children.

Take 1-2 gummies as needed for the desired effect

Helps to relieve stress and anxiety, as well as boosts energy and productivity


Muscimol is a potent and selective orthosteric, meaning it reacts with our brain’s GABA receptors. When ingested, it can provide feelings of euphoria and tranquility, an altered sense of hearing and taste, changes to sensory perception, and vivid dreams.

Ibotenic acid is the neurotoxic secondary metabolite of Amanita muscaria, and the prodrug for muscimol—during the drying of the mushroom, ibotenic acid is decarboxylated into muscimol. Muscimol is five to six times more potent than ibotenic acid. By completely removing all of the ibotenic acid and converting it into our muscimol extract we are able to offer a safe and effective experience. 

It felt very calm and peaceful. And, it was kind of light and reflective in a good, beautiful, happy way.

Why We Like this Product

Foundry Nation is one of our “family brands” as the owner, Gavin Rydell, is also the co-founder of Turning Leaf (formerly known as Infinite Vapor). So beyond being a cheerleader for the home team, we think this product is excellent because of how it is produced. 

Foundry Nation sources from a reputable agriculturist state-side, who works directly with mushroom farms in Lithuania. The farms produce all types of functional mushrooms, which are then emulsified to be used as a water-soluble ingredient in products. Using the Amanita mushroom caps only (no stems), Foundry Nation Boomers’ contain 350mg of amanita muscaria in each gummy. Finally, products are third-party, lab tested and results (COAs) are made available to the public – read the Boomers COA now

Make sure the day would be fun no matter what… if you’re expecting to have a good time sitting by a wall, I mean maybe, but don’t bank on it.

So, Amanita is Legal?

Yes, currently Amanita is legal in the United States with the only exception being Louisiana. In Louisiana, you can only have Amanita for ornamental purposes (I mean, it would be an adorable addition to a gnome home).

It is also legal in many other countries, like: Ireland, Mexico, Thailand, Sweden, and Ukraine.
