And Futurama likes to reference many works of science fiction. Many of these cover the subject of dystopian/utopian societies where suicide is facilitated/promoted/mandated.
Futurama makes at least one direct reference to Soylent Green for one (Soylent Soda).
The episode where Bender will explode if he says "Ass" is based of a Phillip K Dick short story.
What's it taste like
It varies from person to person.
