Could be as trivial as a type of food, a TV show, or something more serious.

    Cilantro. Fucking soapy-assed tasting bullshit. I want to like you, but genetics won’t let me.

          TBH, this doesn’t make any sense, you can buy both cilantro and coriander for cooking. They’re both regular ingredients, so they’re both culinary terms.

          Normally cilantro is the leafy part and coriander is the seeds (you can get whole or crushed).

            That’s at least true for American English. I’m unclear if it holds true in British, Australian, etc. Or if it works in other languages that use these words.

      Never got a soapy taste from cilantro, but as a kid, a suicidal stink bug landed on a PB&J I was eating.

      At first I was pissed off at my brother, cuz that bastard put cilantro on a fucking PB&J!!! I spit the bite out. Wad of partially chewed sandwich, mixed with insect legs and broken shell lands on my plate: no cilantro. Brother is now looking up at me with a genuine expression of concern: not a prank.

      Lesson 1: look before you bite.

      Lesson 2: Stink bugs taste exactly like cilantro.

      Lesson 3: …cilantro tastes exactly like stink bugs.

      The tiniest little flek of that shit can ruin an otherwise delicious bite of food.

      Is parsley related to Cilantro?

      I really really cannot stand parsley in anything, it is bitter and disgusting and mu workplace puts it in everything.

            You have probably had it. It’s in tons of food. If you’ve ever had coriander, that is another name for cilantro.

            If you like cilantro, you’re normal. The soap gene is the mutant gene. Like blue eyes, or being able to process lactose (I have both).

      This for sure. I have the soap gene as well. I love Mexican food, and it’s nigh impossible to find much traditional Mexican without cilantro.

        Heads up: cooking cilantro should eliminate the soapy flavor.

        Also be aware many indian dishes contain cilantro/coriander

          Oh yes I forgot about Indian. I have to be picky about where I go so I can avoid cilantro. Cooking does help a little bit the soap is still there for me. It’s really overwhelming in dishes to me.
