Cilantro is awful

[grang]

I am very sad I have the thing because it's a staple in so many different cuisines, it must be delicious...and yet it isn't to me :(

 

[Junior Asparagus]

You are awful. Cilantro is love.

 

[cinch]

I don't taste soap but i'm not a big fan, i love it in guac though

 

[PepeElToro]

Frankly, people that don't like cilantro belong with heathens who don't like chocolate and hate pineapple on Pizza. Truly, a godless bunch.

Goddamn facts

Cilantro is herb of the gods.

This. You just have sad genes.

 

[Grouch Douglass]

Its an herb that has a very strong good flavor IMO. I appreciate the fact it changes the taste of food so drastically.

 

[PipefishUK]

It's called coriander.

And yes it's awful soap flavour!

Always confuses me, I have to think, 'Which one is the one they call Cilantro?'

Same when someone says 'Eggplant' - What's an eggplant again? *googles* Oh, an aubergine.

 

[Khanimus]

This is literally a genetic difference that affects like 10% of the population. Cilantro is great - your taste buds are just fucked.

I love cilantro. Chocolate is good. I hate pineapple on pizza.

Fear not, there is still time to repent.

 

[Fuzzy]

I never knew about the soap thing. I now feel bad for those people because it's on so many things.

 

[Lucky Forward]

Cilantro sounds like the name of a drug they advertise during the network evening news.

 

[Geeko]

Sorry that it taste like soap to you, that's just unlucky genetics. To me, it elevates pretty much every Mexican cuisine I eat. Love the stuff.

 

[SwampBastard]

I feel genuinely sorry for the folks who are hardwired to hate cilantro. It's wonderful.

I had cilantro on a bbq chicken pizza once and it might have been the worst thing I've put in my mouth

I just looked up courgette and that appears to be another name for zucchini, not eggplant.

EDIT: lol, you can't fool me with your edits!

Coriander is what we call the seeds, cilantro is the leaves.

 

[Yams]

Luckily I don't have shitty genes and can enjoy the great taste that cilantro provides

Sorry OP

The taqueria here doesn't put cilantro on things because they season the food properly and it doesn't need it.

 

[iksenpets]

It's the king of the herbs. Pile that shit on my tacos and my curries and my pho and whatever else you have for me.

 

[ThisIsBlitz21]

You just pissed off the entire IndianEra, and they'll be coming for you.

edit: to be clear, I'm Indian myself, and we put that shit in absolutely everything. Cilantro is great.

 

[Heshinsi]

Cilantro instantly elevates a dish to heavenly status. I can't imagine having banh-mi without it (my local place let's you add shredded mango 🤤).

 

[nitewulf]

Instead of cilantro you could use other herbs, holy basil, mint, basil, lemon basil.

I had vermicelli for lunch and It was like, can I get some noodles for my cilantro bowl please?

 

[Culex]

I'm glad I'm not one of those that has it taste like soap.

Cilantro and lime juice is such a good combination.

lol what in the hell kind of take is this. I guess taquerias in Mexico don't know how to season properly.

Develop a better palette, manchildren

Not everything is fucking cheese and wheat (pizza)

 

[Deleted member 60582]

Cilantro is proof that the devil is real. I have the gene, and every time I taste it I physically react. It's so, so bad.

 

[Soundscream]

Just because your taste buds are defective, doesn't give you the right to disrespect cilantro!

 

[Deleted member 8861]

I too taste soap and hate it

 

[rudeboyoslo]

For you weird people who like it, what does it taste like?

Click to shrink...

Like perfection.

 

[Sai]

My taste buds are broken too, bud :( Sucks.

 

[BrokenIcarus]

I love fresh cilantro, it's one of my top 5 spices of all time. However dried cilantro is nasty and I wouldn't put it in anything.

 

[alpha]

I also have the thing that makes it taste like soap. It'd be interesting if there was some way to know what it's supposed to taste like.

 

[overcast]

No

 

[Carlius]

Pfff...mashed cilantro on rice and chicken is amazing stuff. Stuff of the gods

 

[Bigwombat]

I had no idea about this soap thing. Crazy!

 

[Zukkoyaki]

I like cilantro but find it's easy to go overboard with it.

 

[Bradford]

You probably are a supertaster.

 

[DrSopa]

me gusta el cilantro pero nunca tanto

 

[Keyouta]

Good.

More for me.

 

[mopinks]

top tier herb

food is so much sadder without it

 

[PeskyToaster]

It's called coriander.

And yes it's awful soap flavour!

Is it that weird that other people would have a different term for something?

BBQ chicken pizza? Well there's your problem.

[Deleted member 31817]

I'm sorry you suffer from the genetic disposition to taste it as soap, I for one don't have it and love it.
