What is the best herb?
For me, it's cilantro/coriander.
It makes chicken taste amazing. I'm glad I don't have that shitty gene that makes it taste like soap.

This shit tastes like soap to me... yet I still like it.

Repeat after me:

Cor-i-an-der

Cilantro is always the first ingredient that everyone skips if they need to
What a shit herb

I realize my genetics predispose me to hating this shit, but really. Why do people actually like this godawful herb?

>does nothing but taste like a freshly mowed lawn

Cilantro is the worst fucking spice/herb

>makes your entire dish taste like soap
>ruins your meal

Why is it that cilantro/coriander hate is such a big thing on the internet when statistically less than 10% of the worlds population have the genetic variation that make it taste bad?
Especially considering that gene would cause many various common vegetables and foods to taste bad, not just cilantro, I can't possibly believe its anything other than a tastelet meme

Fuck me, can anyone describe to me how this actually tastes to someone who has shit tier soaptaste genes. Being shunned in a latino household makes me want to kms

Cilantro is literally the best herb and you cant change my mind
