Perhaps the first taster was hoping he'd discovered a new Durian type food, which smells awful but tastes wonderful (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian). He must have been disappointed to discover it tastes as bad as it smells...
I like that Wikipedia describes it as "edible but the taste is extremely foul"! It was a brave man who tried it and found that out, especially as it stinks like rotting flesh!
