So yesterday I made up 1500 capsules (three different 250 gram bags) and the first was TFH Mellow Yellow Indo. When I finished with it I naturally had to partake a few grams and while I made the rest of the capsules it kicked in.

As a rule I'm not a huge fan of yellows but this one lived up to its name and more - I felt VERY mellow and it made making the rest of the capsules (normally fairly tedious) a joy. Just overall a very terrific experience.

As a side note: most folks think of Donovan's song when they hear the words Mellow Yellow, and of course, those of us who grew up in the 60's at the time thought it referred to smoking banana skins (there was a rumor that would make you high. You have to remember that during the 60's everything and anything was tried to get you high. Banana skins, unfortunately, did not work :>). Today's modern source of information reveals that Donovan was actually thinking of a vibrator when he wrote the song - he saw an ad for a yellow vibrator that "made you mellow", so actually the song means having an orgasm, not getting high. I can't say that TFH's batch was orgasmic, but it was pretty good.

I have no idea if it's still available but, if so, I wouldn't pass it by.

Thank you so much for another case of FOMO! :lol:

Anyway, I remember the banana thing quite well. I didn't try that but I had several friends that did. It was also going around that day lilies would
make you high...and yes, I did eat some of those and received a nice case of heart burn, but no high. Drat! :x San Pedro Cactus was another one
that was supposed to be like mescaline. I bought one, actually had it around for about four years before a friend of mine talked me into trying it.
We cut off a good sized chunk, cut it up and tried boiling it in water and making tea...worst case of stomach gas I've ever had....and Heavenly Blue
Morning Glory seeds? I've tried it, you don't want it! :roll:

Oh that makes sense about the vibrator, Kelley, vis a vis the lyrics, "Electrical banana, going to be a sudden craze...."

It was in The Anarchist Cookbook. I’m sure a bunch of us 80s babies smoked things we shouldn’t have, including banana peels :lol:
