Depends on the exact composition but most lavas are going to be way more viscous than honey.

Ohh, wow, you solved a long-standing mystery to me! I’ve been listening to a lot of discworld novels and could not figure out what “treacle mine road” was supposed to translate to. Now that I know the spelling I could finally look it up. Thanks! ❤️

Silicon coated fiberglass should work. Just make sure the cuts are clean or you’re gonna get itchy.

When does something count as being eaten - once you swallow it? I don’t think you’d succeed at that with lava.

You’d be able to taste it which I think would fulfill the requirements of knowing its texture.

In fact, lava is so nutritious it will fill you up for the rest of your life!

I choose to believe you’re taking about having pica, not eating a molten chocolate cake.
