Don't know how many times an ambulance had to cart off one of the freshmen back in my Dorm because some got the idea that Nutmeg was an awesome marijuana substitute!

And how did they even eat enough to make themselves sick? Surely it would have been too strong a flavour to stomach. Blech. They couldn't have been experienced cooks.

And good grief, that must have been one seriously expensive cake. Nutmeg ain't cheap, especially in nut form. I love nutmeg, is small doses. sprinkled on a cappuchino. Or in eggnog. Mmmmmmm...eggnog... --TwoDragons I was about to comment on the gullibility of anyone who puts 20 nutmeg nuts in a cake, but it looks like most everyone else here in on the same level with me in that respect.

I'm actually pretty impressed that so many people managed to choke down enough of the cake to get sick; it must've tasted awful.

It is far from a pleasant experience. I can understand it making people sick given what it did to me. Got a bit buzzed, but dear god the side effects. Nausea, dizziness, head clogged full of gunk, mervousness, palpatations etc... Don't do cake ingredients, kids! Drugs are fine. I've actually used Nutmeg to get high.
