The folklore of peyotism has changed and and expanded since it was first documented as being used as has "The concept of folk group has evolved radically over time"(Sims 2011, 30). With the changes peyotism is not as widely used and discussed, however it is still used today by Native American Indian groups. Peyote rituals now will often start out with powwows during the day with various singing and dancing celebrations and then even after the peyote ceremony itself in the evening until dawn. The peyote rituals can even continue in to the next morning there is often a large breakfast where everyone gathers and jokes or stories are told that are in reference to the night before. This event is very relaxed and many of the jokes are specific to what happened during the peyote ceremony or events associated around the ceremony. These are called peyote jokes. "Many peyote jokes find their humor in human miscalculation and error and in this respect are similar to certain Euro-American jokes" (Howard 1962). Peyotism is also associated strongly with the Native American Church and viewed as an aspect within the religion. It is thought that "since the Plains Indians had an ancient and persistent culture pattern which stimulated vision quests it follows that the vision producing Peyote Religion would be eagerly accepted throughout the Plains culture" (Stewart 1979) and this is how eventually peyotism became part of a religion. Even as part of a religion there are still rites and ceremonies involving the use of peyote.
