Apparently there are reasons why some like and some can’t stand cilantro. I’m not sure if they are really genetic, or biological, or just psychological; but differences exist in how people perceive cilantro. I like it, but it can certainly be overdone even for those inclined toward it - like anything.

That’s like eating asparagus. All peoples urine stinks afterwards but some can’t smell it. Or so I’ve read.

Cilantro/Mexican Parsley/Coriander sucks. I can taste it in gins. Seagram's is the worst of the name brands, followed by Beefeater. Cheap gin is loaded with the stuff.

Years ago I ate a bowl of soup that had way too much cilantro in it. It caused such a bad allergic reaction that I can no longer tolerate cilantro in food. My throat and sinuses close up, I get a headache and I itch.
