Blood has a metallic, salty taste primarily due to its high iron content from hemoglobin, which carries oxygen. Additionally, the presence of other compounds, such as salts and proteins, contributes to its unpleasant flavor. The body’s evolutionary response may also play a role, as the aversion to the taste of blood can deter consumption and promote hygiene. Overall, this combination of factors makes blood taste unappealing to most people.
