So because you were able to gaslight yourself into liking it that means genetic science is fake?
FUCK Cilantro. It tastes like someone wiped their ass with a sweaty gym sock. I don't even get the "soap" taste that many people report, it just tastes awful and even the tiniest amount ruins whatever dish its in.
Yeah it's not really soap, but more the idea that this thing you're eating is definitely not food. Like if you got a wad of grass and doused it in terpentine.
Yeah, it's always tasted more like bug spray to me. My friend loves it and says it just tastes "earthy." But mushrooms taste "earthy" to me and I love them. Cilantro just tastes like big spray!!
You forgot the last part of his sentence..? He's not flouting science. Too many weirdly aggressive redditors here...
so you're saying it's an acquired taste?
I'm gonna wave my freak flag for a minute and say that I'd prefer the gym sock...
It tastes like how stink bugs smell
It's vile and I'm not sure I hate any food more than cilantro, but I don't taste soap
I have a black bean and rice recipe I make a lot and cilantro takes it from a 5-6 in terms of flavor to a 10.
I'm sure it's tasty as heck for you but I'd be unable to eat it. Anything with coriander, even the seeds, tastes awful to me. I simply can't eat the stuff.
Fair enough. I don't like pickles personally.
