I will be watching the replies with interest, because I have an
easy-to-express discharge from both breasts which sounds the same.  I first
noticed it about five years ago when my youngest was four or five.  I have
never had it analyzed, but it tastes salty, and a little metallic.  My
doctor doesn't have a clue what it is, but says not to worry... (?!!?)
