Kotaku asked Nintendo, and they hav confirmed that they apply a non-toxic, bittering agent, to the cards to avoid the ingestion. Oh, and they've used Denatonium Benzoate which, according to wikipedia, is the "most bitter chemical compound known".

 

I'm glad Nintendo has gone with something like this for safety purposes, but I'm still wondering why would a journalist lick the card in the first place?
