D&D 5E What Force Damage Tastes Like

"Force" is what force fields are made of.

EDIT: The reason it works for disintegrate -- and the reason it's not just bludgeoning or slashing damage -- is that the force isn't coming from a physical object, it's just affecting you directly. When you get too close to the event horizon of a black hole and you are ripped apart by gravitational forces alone, that's force damage.

That's my take on it, anyway.

Force Damage tastes like that time in middle school when you stayed home because you were (Sick) and got hungry so took graham crackers and melted marshmallows onto it then poured M&M's on top! Then your older brother came home and saw the over was still on and had melted his favorite VHS tape(you went into his room and got it) into the top of the stove and had mashed M&M into the carpet. It made him so angry he picked you up and hulk hogained you into he living room table that was glass so it shattered as it flipped over and threw you into the brick fireplace, breaking your collar bone.

THAT is what Force Damage feels like, EVERY time.

More description, please, this example is somewhat generic. :)
