One 'edible horror story' could be about a man who ate a strange-looking mushroom in the forest. It seemed normal at first, but then he started seeing terrifying hallucinations of giant, menacing bugs crawling all over his body. He felt like he was losing his mind as the 'edible' turned into a nightmare.
A group of friends went to a new restaurant and ordered a unique 'edible' that was recommended by the waiter. It was a brightly colored dessert.

Sure. A guy ate a weed edible and then went for a walk outside. He suddenly lost his sense of direction completely. He wandered into an area he didn't know and started panicking.

One good edible story is about a traditional Italian pasta dish. A family in Italy has been making this pasta for centuries. They use only the freshest ingredients from their own garden. The pasta is handmade, and the sauce is made from tomatoes they grow. The love and tradition put into this dish make it not just a meal but a great edible story.
Sure. Once I heard a story about a guy who tried to make a fancy cake. He accidentally put salt instead of sugar. When he tasted it, his face was hilarious.
Sure. There's the story of sushi. It originated in Japan. Fishermen needed a way to preserve fish, so they started using vinegar - rice combination. Over time, it developed into the diverse and delicate art form of sushi we know today, with various fish, vegetables, and preparation styles.
My first edible was a cookie. I ate it and then went for a walk. As the effects started, I noticed the colors around me were much more vivid. The green of the trees was almost electric.

One horror story is about a person who ate a large amount of weed edibles thinking it would take a long time to feel the effects.

One common element is the unexpected or unknown ingredient. For example, in many 'edible horror stories', the character eats something that they think is normal food but later find out it contains something strange like a rare and dangerous plant or an ingredient with a dark history.
The first time I had chocolate - it was a small piece of dark chocolate. I remember unwrapping it and taking a tiny bite. At first, it was a bit bitter, but then the rich cocoa flavor filled my senses. It was a complex flavor that I had never experienced before. Since then, I've explored different types of chocolates, from milk to white and all the various percentages of cacao in dark chocolate.
Another theme is misidentification. Like the story I mentioned before about using a toxic plant instead of an herb. People might mistake one ingredient for another, which can lead to horrible consequences when it comes to eating.
