Cum (semen) taste varies from person to person but is generally described as a combination of several flavors due to the fluids and chemicals it contains. The taste is often:
- Salty or bitter, because semen is alkaline.
- Slightly sweet, due to the sugar (fructose) content.
- Sometimes sour or metallic, influenced by minerals and vitamins.
- It can also have a slightly chlorine-like or mushroom-like taste because of antioxidants and other compounds present.
The texture is usually thin and watery but thicker than water, sometimes described as jelly-like. The smell can be musky, salty, or faintly metallic. Factors such as diet, hydration, and health can influence the taste and smell. For instance, consuming sweet fruits like pineapple is often believed to make the taste sweeter, while poor hygiene or certain foods can produce a less pleasant flavor. Overall, many describe it variably as salty, sweet, bitter, sour, or slightly medicinal or bleach-like, and individual experiences may vary widely depending on physiology and lifestyle.
