I have thought about tasting all my plants sometimes. I read somewhere that some people use sundew and butterwort leaves to make cheese and I am interested in this.

Butterwort. The leaves don’t taste good (bitter) but evidently they cause a ropy curdling in milk

I once licked the rim of a freshly opened Nep pitcher. So sweet!
I've not tried any other carnivores, although I'm working myself up to licking one of my Capensis.
