    To lick?

    Also I’ve heard that lead is sweet, but will never lick the solder even though thinking about it is making me really wonder.

      If you’re an adult in no danger of pregnancy and not breastfeeding, licking the solder wire once won’t hurt you noticeably.

      But if you’re worried that you’ll like the taste and might seek it out again, that’s a possibility.

        while this is most likely true, you don’t really know what other sources of lead you come into contact with and it is probably a bad idea to add to the list deliberately

          Weights for fishing (lines) are usually made of lead - at least in my youth they were

        Careful, first you think you will just try 1 spool and the next think you know you are voting for Trump.
