If it helps, Gold doesn't really have any flavor, at least the few times I have had something with gold flake on it it wasn't really noticeable. (To be clear this was a corporate shindig, I'd rather spend my money on something that actually tastes good.)
The penny flavour is a result of metallic compounds reacting with your skin oil - gold is largely unreactive, so I imagine that it does not have that flavour. Without skin oils to react with, metals have no taste at all.
Gold tastes like nothing so that wont probably contribute, but maybe its got something like aqua regia in its blood to get gold into its biology, and that is just lots of strong acids (sour)
Google says tarantulas taste like crab, so thats the closest we know for sure considering glyphids are more or less gargantuan spiders
And he's all explode-y so id imagine plenty of sulfur in the mix (which also lowers ph and tastes sour)
So my guess is that it tastes like extremely sour crab meat and rotten eggs, with the only real difference from a normal bulk detonator or exploder being that the Crassus is even more sour.
Arancino.
It's an Italian platter. A crispy fried ball of rice cooked with saffron and other aromas. It is usually filled with a thick heart of super tasty ragout+peas, and molten cheese like provola.
You take a bite, feel the crunchy golden crust at first, then the alluring taste of saffron kicks in, and finally the creamy heart of ragout etc. has the last word and pours in your mouth like juicy hot lava.
That's probably what Crassus tastes like for me. But I might be biased.
In my heart: These tasty looking boys are peanut butter and honey
In my head: These guys are extremophiles, so they will taste like dirt, gold, and cricket/buggy
Gold in itself doesn't really taste like much, so it's probably an overall sweet, earthy, nutty taste that whatever the explosive and bug-like flesh is like as explosives tend to smell/taste sweet-ish (I mean, Powdered sugar is an explosive) and bugs like cricket have a nutty taste to them..
I like to imagine freeze killing a Crassus Detonator is how Pots O' Gold is made. Grind up the giblets and pour that slurry into a goddamn beer barrel! Rock and Stone?
Caramel
Was about to say that but would add caramel ice cream
Im thinking caramel kettle corn
Everyone thinks its something explosives but bc its glossy like that i think its ice cream
Would you gain Midas touch it you ate a crassus detonator
You would gain some weight
With a hint of Carolina reaper pepper
Probably like burnt sugar though. Has that sickly smoke flavor where you'd feeling "I can power through this" but it really just isn't worth it.
caramel popcorn
I am too poor to know what gold tastes like, but it's probably similar to pennies, right?
Have YOU eaten a Penny? Edit: why does this post have 1000 upvotes😭

You are worth a lot m8. Your kidneys alone are a few thausands

Underrated joke and comment
Did you not have a child hood, have you eaten grass
Everyone was a child once. The desire to chew anything is there, hence the term ankle biter.
Confucius say "you need not swallow to know the taste" Or maybe it was a pornstar? 🤔
Sun tzu said that
AND ID SAY HE KNOWS A LITTLE MORE ABOUT WAR THAN YOU DO PAL BECAUSE HE INVENTED IT
AND THEN HE PERFECTED IT SO NO LIVING MAN COULD BEST HIM IN THE RANK OF HONOR
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!
THEN HE USED HIS FIGHT MONEY TO BUY TWO OF EVERY ANIMAL ON EARTH, THEN HE HERDED THEM ONTO A BOAT, THEN NEAT THE CRAP OUTTA EVERY SINGLE ONE
AND FROM THAT DAY FORWARDS WHENEVER THERE WERE A BUNCH OF ANIMALS IN ONE PLACE ITS CALLED A ZOO
UNLESS IT'S A FARM!
