  At the famous El Bulli, there was speculation and accusation that they were using toxins and poisons. Vigorously denied of course, but perhaps the small sizes allowed for this level of discretion. When I read in this article that the author was for sure they weren't using magic mushrooms or some other kind that would cause a more immediate effect, I was thinking “for suuuuure?” I’ll allow it

  "gets you to" has a negative connotation. I think a better way to say it is that it helps you appreciate the large number of courses without getting stuffed or having your senses exhausted. Imagine going to a concert where the band says they are going to play their entire catalog front to back. If you're about to listen to 50 songs, you probably don't want them to also play the extended versions of each one at full blast if you have any hopes of making it through the show.
