Why is that? What was causing the craving? Can you elaborate? I've heard that alcohol and cocaine cause this.

IME mushrooms cause any low-consciousness activities like smoking/drinking/mindless partying to seem repulsive.

Repulsive is absolutely the right word for this effect.

Edit for one more thought on this: it also gave me an appreciation for vegans and vegetarians.

I'll never be a vegetarian, but for a brief moment I understood what all my hippie friends are on about :)
