I've chewed qat/khat! It's a nice way to spend a day with friends but it fucks up your teeth and also can make sleeping difficult since you're all wired up. It's also extremely bitter so I always chewed it with some gum. And if you like nicotine it will make you want to smoke like a chimney.

one of my books told me never to try it because it would cause certain death, lol

my immigration law professor kept telling us about somalis getting caught with qat, like every time he forgot he had just told us this story last time

Yeah I chewed it while studying swahili for a summer in Mombasa. It's kinda crazy though...some people chew that shit everyday. There are all different kinds--the most sought after was a short, stubby type. It was supposed to be the strongest, and softest to chew. I actually liked the slightly longer kind. Just make sure to strip off the leaves, and only chew the soft parts, not the hard stem.
Thing was, after I came back from Mombasa, I had this dark spot in between my front two teeth from the qat (I had chewed quite a bit, and was probably doing it wrong).
