I tasted some pitcher fluid once. I made sure that it was from a pitcher that just opened, so there were no insects in it. The taste of the fluid was rather sweet, as I recall. It had absolutely no effect on me except that for a couple of days I had an inexplicable desire to eat flies.

Well maybe newly opened pitcher liquid is fine but for my experience it was pitchers a couple of weeks-months old already...Its a very disgusting feeling when the mulch of ants and insects drop on me..And desire to eat flies? LOL...

uncontaminated fluid of unopen pitcher was good for human consumption. The fluid good to quench thirst, was thought to cure diarrhoes,tummy upset, reduce body heat,etc...and ken the irritant must have come from the rot by ants and insects.The smell was pungent isn't it?

It gives me the creeps when pitcher fluid pill on my hands everytime I handle them. Hehehe but I like shaking the fluid before the pitcher open.

ken, pitcher fluid won't dissolve your hand :P But make sure you don't have any open wounds or scratches. I think there is a likelihood of being infected by bacteria growing in the pitcher.. so next time you get any pitcher fluid on yourself, just rinse it off with running water immediately..
