I'm assuming that is more texture based. I think it just tastes of seaweed. I'll bow to your greater experience on the flavour of used condoms.

Wasn't expecting to see Portstewart on Hacker News today but here we go!
Aye, I've only had the fresh stuff myself as a child. My aunties would rent a caravan down on the Strangford coast and we would go down to get it ourselves, and we'd pick mollusks from the rocks and other things of that nature. Some great memories there, thank you for bringing them to the fore.
Salty rubber is right. I don't actually like the stuff myself but I still enjoy eating it somehow! The iodine flavour is always the main thing for me, but I can see the appeal for sure.
It tastes a LOT nicer fresh. But that's not saying a lot, I mean it still tastes like salty rubber.
As for the content below, that it tastes like bacon?? I mean, yeeeeeaaaaaahhh? In the same way that a used condom might taste of bacon?
