Do you hate cilantro/coriander?

It seems that some people think it tastes like soap.

If you hate it, may I ask what ethnic background you are?

In this house, Coriander Is worshiped.

I've tried growing It on the patio but It goes stringy and I don't get much leaf. We buy It fresh In Sainsbury every week for curries etc but especially buckets of It In home made salsa.

Lurve coriander and all spices and herbs. Any curry must have coriander in it. Oh and fresh coriander leaves on an Asian pork roll........ahhh to die for .

I do like it. They grow it on the farm around where I live so at a certain time of year, the air is thick with the smell. It can be a little overpowering

I thought it was weird too but there's even a site with quite a few members that hate the stuff. I Hate Cilantro - an anti cilantro community A discussion on FB came up with several more haters.

Apparently, the hatred is hereditary, whatever that means. I wondered if it had anything to do with what part of the world your ancesters came from.

Cilantro is a important ingredient in salsa

I break out in a rash eating cilantro - don't know why - I have no allergies to foods but

it's the only thing my skin will break out.

I'm a white old lady living in the southwest where they make wonderful delish salsa.
