Although there is iron in the blood, I dont think thats the reason blood tastes like metal, or else hamburger would have a mettalic taste even after being cooked.
Other than that... I really dont know.

Blood tastes like metal because you probably have too much iron in your body. I wouldn't suggest the continuation of licking blood.

Technical answer is the hemocrit in the blood. Non technical answer iron is the way that oxygen transfers in your blood stream so your blood is going to have a slightly metallic salty taste to it.

You have to get it blessed by a vampiriest to take away the metal taste.

Iron in the blood stream helps insure oxygen carries to varoius parts of the body, and keeps veins and arteries intact.

Because the hemoglobin portion of blood contains iron.

It's the iron content in your blood. Why are you tasting your blood...?

Because one of the main ingredients of blood is iron.
