  1. I love cilantro and explaining to other people potential reasons why they dont like cilantro

  2. Coriander is my life blood. Food without coriander is bland! Bite me coriander haters. MUAHAHAHAHAH

  3. Your argument is rendered null and void by pico de gallo.

    Also misses that while cilantro may have… questionable merits on its own, its not like biting into cloves of garlic is that pleasant either.

  4. Ok but what if it has a bit of a soapy taste and I like it? OH and can you do more videos on stinkbugs? I swear to god green stinkbugs smell like green apple candy. I wanna eat them so bad.

  5. It isn't genetic. That is the most annoying lie. Genetics do not determine what something tastes like to you. It just shows that the people who repeat the lie do not understand how generics work because that is the excuse for everything. Obesity, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, etc etc etc is not genetic, it is caused by poor diet and harmful chemicals in everything we come into contact with. There have been scientific studies done on those facts. And the fact that the soapy taste is cilantro reacting to the heavy metals in the body. The people who think it tastes like soap are the ones who need it most because it removes heavy metals from the body. You are free to look all this up yourself and stop spreading the genetic lie.

  6. My roommate adores the stuff and insists on growing it on our balcony. It baffles me but, well, whatever makes her happy. I'm going to stick with my fresh oregano and basil (and catnip for the furbabies) and she's welcome to all the cilantro. Thank you for the explanation, I'm going to make her watch this!

  7. I don't love coriander, and I'd gladly have it taste like soap if it meant that sweeteners didn't taste bitter.

  8. I've got the gene that makes fresh cilantro taste like soap. Dried is ok, but i hav adapted to the soap flavor.

  9. Neat, as always. Thanks! I'm delighted that I don't have the genes to smell this. But I can smell asparagus-pee so it's not all well in my nose.

  10. I can’t even tell because I grew up since a baby eating this stuff. So even if it was “soapy”, it’s a good soapy taste

  11. My daughter loves fresh cilantro on her poke bowl, but both her mother and I hates it! So either the mailman and I has a problem, or the genes skipped a generation?😂
