This is not a recreational drug, it causes massive nausea often followed by full on purging and complete self-awareness (read awareness of faults, guilt, lies etc) and does not always lead to bliss, understanding and acceptance of self.

It tastes absolutely disgusting!
I don't know a thing about peyote!
