My honeymoon could have gotten quite a twist

If you think that's mad, your balls can taste spice! You can test this yourself by pouring hot sauce all over your genitals.

1980: in the future, we'll have flying cars! 2024: Stop dipping your balls in soy sauce you fucking idiots

Guys, please dip your balls in soy sauce or whatever if you can't help yourself but I'm quite sure that it won't work. I know that this is the green text community but still:

*Receptors on different parts of the body do different things. The taste buds on your tongue respond to whether or not food is edible—and of course, provide taste—while the taste buds on your testicles instead send signals to your body about sperm and testosterone production.

And the scrotum does not have "taste buds,” to be clear. “It’s also important to note that the taste receptors are in your testicles," adds Justin Dubin, a current Urology Resident at the University of Miami and soon to be Northwestern University fellow specializing in male infertility and sexual medicine. "When you dip your balls in food or sauces, you’re actually only exposing your scrotum to the food ... which is the skin surrounding and protecting your testicles."

In addition to your scrotal skin, you have other layers of tissue that separate your testicles from the outside world, so it is safe to say putting food or any other item on your scrotum won't get you anywhere close to direct contact with the actual testicle.

“Even if you were able to somehow put food on your actual testicle, which I recommend never trying, the taste receptors would not allow you to taste anything as they simply do not function the same way they do in your mouth and you would not experience the sensation of taste,” Dubin adds.

You probably wouldn't want to experience taste from your testicles, anyway. If this were the case, as Brahmbhatt points out, you’d constantly "taste" the smell of your scrotum and testicles—even sperm. Yuck.

“Obviously this does not happen—further dispelling the myth that has been propagated,” he says.*

I am not sure whether this article was solely published in Men's Health but here's the article:

Someone please call the science memes community! Misinformation is winning against me!!

I'm sitting here with explosive diarrhoea and this would be somewhat worse if my balls could taste.

The fact I have never tasted the dreaded bowl splash dispels this myth.

Alright, I just dipped my balls in a bowl of cordial, so you don't have to.

My sack didn't detect any sweetness, but I'm sure if someone sucked on them, then they would.

Reminds me of that South Park episode where Cartman proves you can eat from your ass and shit from your mouth.

What in the everlasting fuck kind of timeline are we in?

It works it really works

So that's why everything tastes like dick all the time...

But why

The treat that's salty and sweet!
