Status: offline 		This silly poll was directly inspired by a conversation I had with my Dad while he was visiting about the evils of cilantro. In the rest of the world it's called coriander.. and we both hate it. It tastes like a cool soap to me. Apparently, it's genetic to dislike it.

But, like so many EW flavours, I am working on it. In minimal amounts, I am able to interpret the taste as 'brightness'.

I gather that how the taste is perceived is genetic, so I'll never know what it tastes like to the people that LOVE it. It must be spectacular.

Picture a burrito stuffed with tofu (or eggs, I suppose), black beans, cheddar cheese, tomatoes, and a fabulous cilantro paste.

Cilantro sprinkled on chili. It wouldn't be the same without it. Or a pasta salad.

Big hunks of it are a little hard to take, but a little bit goes a long way for me.

Mexican foods are one of my specialties... and I don't often use cilantro as we like left overs.

Status: offline 		I stopped at one of those mexican chains after work one night...EVERY salsa but one had cilantro, the rice had cilantro, it was endless! Thank goodness I could get carnitas with hot sauce. Because even both varieties of beans had flippin cilantro!

Why not just offer liquid dish soap as a condiment?

Status: offline 		I love cilantro. It's the seed of the plant that is coriander.

I grew some this summer but due to the to hot, dry weather we had, most of it went to seed. I'm not sure how to separate the seed from the leaf. I have what I harvested drying somewhere. . . .
