I live in a delightful world where certain interesting fungi are
plentiful, and more to the point legal. Ingestion can be enlightening,

Garcia was heroin; Pigpen was alcohol; and Brent was morphine. They
shoulda stuck with hallucinogenics.

And robinlandseadel is right. I would add there is no key that is the key.
