I'm convinced that this tastes the exact same to everyone it's just some people like the flavor and say "It doesn't taste like soap" and some people dislike the flavor and say "it tastes like soap"

It's legit a genetic thing, it's a bit like aspargus making your piss smell. Some people have the gene that makes your piss smell when you eat aspargus and some don't.

you can't empirically prove that people aren't tasting the exact same thing.

LOL. So close. Asparagus makes EVERYBODY'S piss smell. The genetic thing determines whether you're able to smell it or not.

I have tasted soap and cilantro, I can confirm it tastes nothing like soap to me.

it does taste like soap. it has this strange taste like it scratches my tongue too. I used to hate it but I bought some cilantro soup ramen and thoroughly enjoyed it. I think corriander seed is a good cooking ingredient too and doesn't taste soapy like fresh leaves do. I can taste nothing but cilantro in pico from some places. I had chipotle years ago and remember having to scrape the pico out of the burrito before I could continue eating it, and the cilantro still dominated the flavor

Can confirm, me and the mates tested this on a camping trip when we had a surplus of asparagus and beer

I love it. Makes your salads explode with freshness. Brings out flavour in pajeet and mesican food.

Coriander goes in Pho. It can fuck off for any other dish tho

Hint: it's why a new product has to be tasted by thousands of people before being launched, or else you're not covered against those.

I don't like the taste of soap and I do like the taste of cilantro. Theory blown.

>> No.15360113

>>15357809
Both are bullshit. Everyone's piss smells from asparagus. As for cilantro, it tastes like soap if you've never tasted it before. The more you eat it, the more it tastes like cilantro.

Not so. Cilantro contains a compound similar in chemical structure to most lye based soaps. Consequently most people from cultures with more than a thousand years of using lye based soaps find cilantro disgusting. Similarly many cultures that don't have a long history of domesticating livestock produce people that develop lactose intolerance after childhood.

Coriander tastes like soap, yeah, but its good in pho and on tacos. People complaining just use too much. Same could be argued for sage or that mint only belongs desserts.
