Spice for DMT was before the synthetic cannaboids and it goes back to Dune

Except we don't get the blue on blue eyes. That's a bit of a shame.
The nearest we ever come to knowing truth is when we are witness to paradox.

With a little searching (basic homework), you could have stumbled onto this thread: Stop using 'spice' as a term

Perhaps the most interesting comment in that thread:

jamie wrote:
The original spice was psilocybe azurescens..

..and I am not joking. Frank Herbert was really into psilocybe azurescens at the time he wrote dune, and the spice was inspired by those mushrooms.


Dune is a classic, really. Must watch. Almost as good as Blade Runner (too bad almost noone seems to get what that one is really about.)

Pitubo is right, it's from Frank Herbert's masterwork Dune, and it's not DMT but magic mushrooms. A quote from his good friend Paul Stamets in 'Mycelium Running' (p.123):

"Frank went on to tell me that much of the premise of Dune - the magic spice (spores) that allowed the bending of space (tripping), the giant worms (maggots digesting mushrooms), the eyes of the Fremen (the cerulean blue of Psilocybe mushrooms), the mysticism of the female spiritual warriors, the Bene Gesserit (influenced by tales of Maria Sabina and the sacred mushroom cults of Mexico) - came from his perception of the fungal life cycle, and his imagination was stimulated through his experiences with the use of magic mushrooms."
