It is one of those food fetishes that have taken a tough grip on Tiktok. If you haven't heard of it yet, prepare your syrups and cakes, nude yourself, and splosh!

In kinky BDSM practices, we define it as a fetish where an individual gets aroused by being covered or covering someone in fluid substances such as mud. Some of the substances used to practice sploshing include; slime, food syrups and cakes, shaving creams, pies, condiments, and mud.

The excitement with sploshing is derived from the fun and enjoyment a person gets when playing and juggling around distinct sensations food can evoke. For instance, touch, smell, and taste.

The activity does not include bodily fluids like sperms. Sploshing is sometimes referred to as Wet and Messy (WAM).

What Erotic Food Fantasy Have You Wanted to Try In Your Bedroom?

While reading The Fifty Shades of grey, I always wondered about many things that I did not know about. I had sworn never to try any. However, I told myself I had to try simple ones such as licking cold chocolate or ice cubes off someone's skin. I did that and got the best feeling.

You can try out the following:

Smearing body massage oil on your partner.

Licking whipped cream, syrup, or chocolate sauce off your partner’s skin.

Take a tequila shot off someone’s body.

Take yourselves for mud wrestling.

Where is the Fun in All That?

Sploshing is not necessarily a sexual engagement. Some people just do it for the fun of it. There are no research findings to tell us for sure why except suppositions to this effect that try to explain the many theories that have been put forward.

Some say it is a psychological predisposition. Many have indicated that it might have something to do with grownups breaking the childhood rules, like not playing with food Or just expressing the childhood joys and freedoms such as playing in the mud or dirty water but putting an erotic sexual connotation to it.

Another theory is that the variables emanating from food are responsible for sploshing in adults. These variables are explained to mean temperature variations, food stickiness, oiliness, slipperiness, and fizziness. The named factors cause, activate, or enhance tactile sensations in the body resulting in the widespread sploshing for fun or as a sexual fetish.

Lastly, some allude to it being down to kinky BDSM practices that some people get aroused when they humiliate another person. The dominant may use sploshing for this reason on the submissive.  Remember, some people enjoy kinky humiliation more than sex and may jerk over it.

Other Sploshing Versions

Kinky fetishes may come as broad-pure, a subgenre, or a combination of many. Here are some forms of sploshing;

Sitophilia

A person/s gets aroused from the food itself rather than when someone interacts with it.

Salirophila

This is arousal that results from sallying stuff. For example, smashing objects, dirtying oneself, and tearing clothes.

Bondage

A person is aroused when they see a tied-up person getting WAM.

Risks And What To Avoid

Abrasion

Avoid scratchy foods like strawberry seeds in cakes.

Allergens

Eating food is one thing; splashing it on the skin is another case altogether. There're chemicals or compounds in food that could cause a reaction in your body. On the same subject, foods with hot chilies may not be the best foods to party around your body with.

Infections

Suppose you can keep the foods away from your sexual reproductive organs, the better. If you cannot help it, then watch out for fungus infections. Sugar or sweetened foods around the vagina could lead to a surge in the population of the candida fungus. This could easily result in candidiasis or fungal growth. The condition is commonly referred to as vaginal yeast infection, which can be transmitted to your male partner through intercourse.

Eye infections

Avoid this area when sploshing. If you can’t, have water and a wiper around you at all times. Leaving food to get in contact with your eyes may prove catastrophic.

How To Start Sploshing

Here are the tips for people interested in joining the growing number of TikTokers in showcasing their sploshing skills.

Always start with the basics. Choose the readily available foods such as syrups, and chocolate creams, then move up from there.

Go for those foods that ate socially acceptable and widely used. It is much easier to start from the point of knowledge than explore others later. This may affect the consensus with your partner if they do not know the type of food you intend to use.

Mudding is usually regarded as a social function. Start with these events before moving up.

You could spice up the romance and foreplay if you licked syrups and creams off your partner’s skin. Drizzling and licking can be hot as hell. Change flavors frequently until you find one that does the magic for both of you.

The Bottom Line

Whether a kinky fetish or just people having fun, sploshing, as recently demonstrated on TikTok, is a fun affair with friends and partners. It could be that difference you were looking for in your romantic life.

As fun as it sounds, always be cautious of some foods and what your body can handle and is supposed to handle alone.
