The term Salty Ice Cream Scooper Relates to Sperm

The Urban Dictionary has an entry for “salty ice cream scooper.”
“Any man or woman who consumes sperm left over for more than 2 days. Usually the sperm comes in flavors due to the donors taking sperm flavor tablets,” the dictionary describes the term’s meaning.
“Luke totally is a Salty Ice Cream Scooper. He only eats Aaron’s though,” is the example given.
But is this true? Are there really flavor tablets for sperm? Yes, lots of them. Just Google it. Some even come in fruity flavors, like strawberry and pineapple. We’re not sure about the two-day-old thing, though. Most sperm dies within minutes of ejaculation, according to BabyMed. Once sperm enters the body, it can live for five days. It seems more likely that people use the sperm flavored tablets at the time of a sexual act, not two days later, but what do we know.
Another Urban Dictionary user created a definition for “saltyicecream” without the spaces in January 2022 and described it as “lots of porn.”
Remember that the Urban Dictionary is crowd sourced. That means anyone can post on it. But the term has clearly been floating around for some time.
