Did Nintendo purposefully make Switch game cards taste bad?

Okay, so, turns out Nintendo Switch cartridges taste awful so kids won't eat them. I, uh, just licked one and can confirm: TASTES BAD MAN.

Alanah Pearce over at IGN says it's actually true. I don't know where she got her information from, but doesn't seem like something Nintendo would do? Now let's go lick some 3DS cards and see how they taste!
