Did you know that Santa Claus might have had a little green helper in his sleigh? According to some historical accounts, the traditional image of Santa was influenced by the ancient Siberian shamans who used fly agaric mushrooms, known for their hallucinogenic properties. These mushrooms, often associated with reindeer, were said to give the shamans the ability to 'fly' and deliver gifts. While not cannabis, this festive fun fact reminds us that the holiday season has always had a touch of magical, mind-altering cheer!
