"Those who dislike the taste are sensitive to the offending unsaturated aldehydes, while simultaneously may also be unable to detect the aromatic chemicals that others find pleasant..[24] Association between its taste and several other genes, including a bitter-taste receptor, have also been found.[25]"

Clearly we are more evolved than those who can not detect the aromatic chemicals that others find pleasant..

You know.......once you get past the feces explosion.

I make no comment as to who is more or less "evolved". Some things are an acquired taste such as Pollo En Molé. Being that I was born and raised down here on the Texas/Mexican border, I've been eating these kinds of foods all my life and I like it.
However, I am very well aware that certain of our "local foods" are an acquired taste as I have said.
Take Pollo en Molé For example. I grew up eating it and I love it. All of my relatives from up north absolutely hate it. It is an acquired taste.
As to the cilantro, I didn't know so many people hated cilantro until I started reading this thread. Down here where I live everybody eats it. Always have and probably always will I guess. This thread has been an education for me.

As to the feces explosion problem. Well that doesn't bother me since I grow my own coriander.
