No.

While there's evidence that testicles have taste receptors, you cannot taste through them for two reasons:

  1. They're likely on the inside of the testicle so you'd have to cut them open to even try;

  2. They're not connected to your brain so you wouldn't receive the signal even if you mutilated yourself to get to them.

I have no sense of smell. My brain does not make the chemicals for olfactory sensation.

I still have taste and am a damn good cook.

I have no information on testical tasting ability.

If you dip your balls in soy sauce for 5 min you will taste it. Really. No /s.

Weird, but if you want to know mercury tastes almost exactly lead but not as strong.

Honestly though, I can't taste anything in paprika. It is just powdered red pepper, but to me it has zero flavor. I have always assumed it was just to add coloring to foods. But some people can actually taste it.

In your original endeavour, try Quote Investigator. It doesn't always have an answer, but when it does, the answer is thorough. It will provide sources and provide discussion/debate if relevant.

Posting on my main...because why not?!

Soo...my daughter's fiancée saw a TikTok in which it was stated that men can taste soy sauce through their balls.

Knowing that I'd had a few drinks, she asked me if this was true - I said no. Then she asked the killer question: "Have you ever tried it?" Again, the answer was no. "You should try it and find out for definite!"

Had I been sober, I would not have dunked my nuts into a small bowl of soy sauce for science.

Oh, and no, I couldn't taste the soy sauce through my balls.

I’m surprised “the rainbow” isn’t one of the suggestions.

I'd say no, but I imagine technically if you rubbed DMSO on your balls, it would cause you to taste garlic just as it does when applied anywhere else on the skin.

Wasn't this a thing on tiktok for a minute like a year ago?

Someone dunked their balls in soy sauce or something then insisted they could taste it.

Okay, pedant. On your scrotum then. The skin of your scrotum. Massaged into the epidermal layer. Shouldn't take more than a few minutes, perhaps much less to start tasting a garlicky taste. (Note that I am not necessarily recommending this...DMSO has been found to easily carry many chemicals through the akin and even accidental contamination could contribute to a poisoning)
