And folks think I'm nuts when I say Cilantro tastes like soap to me. Not at all. There is a bitter ingredient to cilantro.
The ability to taste this ingredient is controlled by a single gene.
You lost the genetic lottery.
Sorry.

I don't mind losing the Cilantro lottery. What bugs me is it has become the herb du juor and it's in EVERYTHING it seems.

If you spent your entire existence carrying pig poop you’d stink too.

You’re not nuts. There’s a chemical in cilantro that is noxious to about 10 percent of the population. People who like cilantro can’t taste the chemical. People who can taste the chemical hate cilantro. Apparently it is an inherited trait, like color blindness.

I don't want cilantro tasting like cilantro.
Only because people that have no taste buds continue to insist on putting it in/on food.
For the life of me, I can't ever recall eating chitlins. If I did, they were not so good that it created a desire for me to find out what they were, or so bad ... likewise.

Wow ~ hey, this is about COOKING ODORS, not eatin’ odors.

That is precisely why I'm sorry for you and your colleagues on this thread.

Yes of all things to eat from an animal, lets eat its “oil filter”. LOL

You are right! I love cilantro in one thing; salsa.....in fact, the more the better. I have never had chitlins.........I have a pretty open mind about food, but chitlins is where it closes!

If you spent your entire existence carrying pig poop you’d stink too. I must stink. I've been carrying the load for democrat welfare queens and government workers for years. Now I AM boiling...
...boiling mad.

An attractive plant but useless for someone who doesn’t care for mexican food- or chitlins come to think of it. I let it go to seed (coriander) and used that for mixing into giardiniera.

Pigs are for making bacon, ham, and footballs. You throw the rest away.

I guess I'll just have to pass on the glory then.
My Dad - who was born in 1921 - used to tell me about the times when they would slaughter a hog, and the kids would have to take the intestines down to the creek and let the water run through them - to "clean them out", ya know.
That was all I ever needed to know about chit'lins But, like "Slim Whitman" songs saved the world in "Mars Attacks", maybe chit'lins will save us when "Muslims Attack"...given their disdain for anything pork related.
How about a bumper sticker - "Have you offered a muslim some chit'lins today?"

Chitlins are a traditional Thanksgiving food? Really?
