Actually, I always imagined that they tasted like grape-apple-orange with a lettuce-like texture.

Portabello mushrooms with a touch of low quality wine - that is, a little grapey and a little vinegary.

You guys are wierd.

Right.
Yes, you can make wine out of them, but I still don't think they are sweet - because for that we have sweet pods. And plump helmets are definitely mushrooms. So... sour mushrooms? Sounds right.

[Sergius]

To me a plump helmet is a pumpkin. Don't know that, except for the matching letters.

[Muz]

I'd think that they'd taste like potatoes. With the texture of a mushroom.

[Jude]

I would imagine they taste something like hellish drudgery with a hint of armpit.

[ductape]

I have seen a few posts that must be close, salty and vinegary might be part of it.

I bet plump helmets taste a a lot like what they sound like: penis.
Big salty, sour, smelly plump helmets.

[Groveller]

Potatoy. Slightly off, gritty, possibly hairy potatoes.

[Haven]

Something like the consistancy of a bland cooking apple. The taste itself, maybe a bit of dinner roll type bread mixed with a lot of mushroom. Not great, but good in cooking.

[Foa]

Like a baked potato, with sour cream, butter, vinegar, with a slight crunch and chewiness, with the hardness of... cardboard, but maybe not warm.

[tigrex]

A crunchy, almost cheese-like exterior that tastes gritty and calcium-y, but is rich, and a very moist centre that warms the tongue with its deep flavour.

But its poisonous to non-dwarves.

[Marlowe]

The last is apparently untrue.

[mainiac]

Like a bitter and tangy dimple cup.

[tigrex]

The last is apparently untrue.

Oh, that's a shame.  It would have been nice to have dwarves invite delegates from human and elf civs for a decent meal, only to inadvertantly poison them.

Real mature...

Well, 'Plump Helmet' has always sounded like an euphemism to me..

[CJ1145]

A would imagine that the texture to be very watery and moist, with the consistency of a mushroom. The taste itself is more akin to a sour plot (plum-apricot hybrid) with a pungent aftertaste of sherry.
