I'm a long time wammer I guess, and enjoy seeing almost all messy styles, but I've only ever gotten messy with shaving cream myself.
Been on a strong wam kick of late and it just made me curious - do some substances feel the same? For example does being covered in clay/mud feel the same as being completely coated in shaving cream?
Also, for me, a mouthful of Barbasol became an acquired taste. But a mouthful or paint? Is that even safe? And what does a mouthful of mud taste like?
I know there's only one real way to find out, and one day, god willing, I will. But my opportunities for messy sessions are few and far between these days so I thought I'd just come here and ask and live vicariously through this crowd as alas I usually do.
I really enjoy this fetish, but sometimes it feels a bit isolating and lonely. Thank god for this site though! Await your replies.
PS I grabbed these pics from the internet - hope that's ok.

Substitute "clay/mud" for pies, pudding, oatmeal, and cake batter but no, they're indescribably different. Different weight, different texture, smell, flowyness, edibility from shaving cream. edit: Even shaving cream vs cool whip, they're still very different. I'll use both for pies sometimes and can always tell which ones were shaving cream / cool whip / actual meringue by the feel alone.
The kid friendly / washable tempera paint that I color stuff with is safe but IDK what it tastes like on its own. It's just an ingredient of the stuff I use.
Different substances do feel wildly different, it's one of the reasons I go poking around to find mud, when in many ways playing with gunge at home would be easier. The weight, depth and cling of mud, the extreme slipperiness of HEC gunge, the stickiness of treacle, they're all worth experiencing. And I don't intentionally take mouthfuls of mud, but the way I like to play it's inevitable that some gets in there now and again. It's actually a lot less offputting than I would have anticipated - tidal stuff is mostly salty, and peaty stuff has quite a distinctive taste but not overwhelmingly bad, I can see how it ends up as an interesting note in peaty Islay whiskies!
Substances very wildly- even the "same" substance (gunge) can have a lot of variation depending on how thick the mix is, how warm it is, if you leave it sitting overnight etc. Colour too- the colour and intensity/transparency actually play into it (psychologically anyway- since identical mixes of a different colour should feel the same)
Can't recommend a mouth full of paint- it doesn't taste good. Then again everyone's taste is different and you're fine with shaving cream so you never now. Use children's poster paint since it's fully non-toxic and least likely to stain.
Mud (and gunge) are very 'neutral' tastes- almost no taste/smell. The best way I'd describe gunge is "it tastes like the word bland" Others on here have compared it to cardboard. Mud (at least the mud I visited) was very similar but with an earthy undertone.
---[[if natural mud has a strong smell- it's usually got a lot of organic material in it, go careful because any cuts/sores (and eyes) are much more likely to pick up an infection]]---
Food items- the smell is a lot lot stronger compared to eating, it can become overpowering if you're not used to strong smells.
