If you're looking for a nickname for your scrotum, one suggestion could be 'tasticles' after an extraordinary research paper was published revealing that testicles have taste receptors.No, it's not a load of balls - these are the receptors - made from protein - that can be found in your mouth, except these can only detect sweet and umami flavours (the amino acid for soy sauce).
Your testicles don't have the monopoly on taste receptors however, as researchers have found them all over the body, including the stomach, pancreas and anus.
