Reminds me of a thread on USENET's alt.sex (or maybe it was one of the
alt.sex.* hierarchy; my memories of that time are fading rapidly) in the
early '90s on the question of whether ingestion of Dr. Pepper, Coca-Cola,
coffee, etc., had an effect on the taste of semen. Could probably find it
on Google Groups if I really had a hankering to do so.
Thank the powers that be I'll never be nominated to the Supreme Court or
something like that, or otherwise one of those threads would come back to
haunt me....
Best,
Len Cleavelin

I recall vegetarians on USENET discussing quite noticeable differences in
body odor and semen taste between men who were veg or meat-eaters.
