what the hell does soap taste like and how do you all seem to know what it tastes like?



Don't wash your face? I've had my mouth washed out with soap as a kid but you can still taste it as an adult when cleaning yourself.

You've never used a dish that wasn't rinsed properly?
It's genetic

See the link below. There's a gene that causes cilantro to taste like soap to some folks, that's why cilantro is such a love / hate thing.

Escabeche, and therefore has it's rightful place among the Her Gods on the Mount Olympus of Culinary Herbs.

Albeit, a lesser position than parsley, thyme, oregano, tarragon, and many others... but nonetheless a righteous seat at the Assembly of Necessary Culinary Herbs.

You don't like it? That's YOUR problem.
The soap people are going to struggle

I thought it was a genetic thing,  
TheEvilLurker : 6/17/2019 1:08 pm : link
because I used to hate it. Now I like it.

Maybe my genes changed? I don't remember being bitten by a radioactive spider...

Go ahead. Serve me something with cilantro in it after I specifically said 'no cilantro.'

Then we'll see whose problem it is.
tastes like soap and ruins meals for me  
PaulBlakeTSU : 6/17/2019 1:13 pm : link
genetically, it's either an enzyme I have or lack that affects the way cilantro is broken down.

It's incredibly frustrating because I love all of the cuisines that feature it heavily and so whenever I"m out with friends and family, I always have to ask for the cilantro to be put on the side for others to add as a garnish or I'll get a second order or say, guac, without the cilantro.

It's so powerfully aromatic in my mouth that I can understand why people who don't have the genetic aversion would love it

You wouldn't get the dish at all... Can't you read the sign over there? It says "NO SUBSTITUTIONS" and "WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE TO ANYONE."

Go down the block to Burger King and "Have It Your Way."

Well, then. Since my dislike of cilantro is a genetic disorder, I'll sue you under the Americans with Disabilities Act and end up owning your restaurant. Get used to saying, "would you like fries with that" at that Burger King after I fire you.
You're a gem Klaatu.
