If he really seems freaked out by it, I would firmly state that it doesn't taste bad and tasting it would not make him gay, and then I would just drop it.
Freely speculating, I suspect he has a big fear of doing anything that could be taken as homosexual. By late elementary school, being called gay is a common insult among boys. By the time they have graduated high school, they have heard "that's gay," or "you're gay," or "don't be gay," or similar phrases using fag or faggot hundreds of times. Being thought of anything less than a conventional straight male stud or, at least, would-be stud given the opportunity can have real social costs among young male peer groups. In short, I speculate that your husband has been most thoroughly conditioned.
By way of example, from my above post it is obvious that I would be unfazed if an SO wanted me to eat my semen for her. Nevertheless, I would never admit to my liking of consuming my semen to any male I know in 3D, not even my brother or best friend. The social risk would simply be too great.
