Law enforcement officials came across a staggering find after being tipped off about possible drug-dealing: dozens of dog-food-size bags of psychedelic mushrooms worth an estimated $8.5 million at a home in rural Connecticut.
Who else thinks those bags are mostly full of substrate (and the mycelium growing throughout it), not only the edible psychedelic parts that the headline and article implies? They'll be able to really bump up those charges if they add the mass of all that other stuff that would never be sold as a drug.
There are pictures in the article. I don't know what the psychoactive part of the mushroom is, but it looks like the bags are indeed full of grown cut mushrooms.
