They don't. Piercing jewelry is usually made from robust materials that are inert in normal conditions, like stainless steel, gold, plastics, and sometimes glass or gemstones. So, no, you don't taste anything, just as you don't taste a plastic cup, ceramic mug, or stainless steel pot.
But sometimes they do for some people because taste is subjective and based on visual cues and expectation?
A cup of tea tastes completely different out of a ceramic mug, than it does a plastic one.
Are you heating your plastic piercings?
some people are hot

I think they might be talking about the taste of blood of a fresh or infected piercing. Blood tastes like keys.
So does every cut on any other body part.
Weirdly enough other people's blood tastes slightly different than my own.
That should've healed by then though
The thing is that some metal ions can catalyse oils of the skin into compounds that are what causes the metallic taste
