Cilantro taste test.
One of our staff members emailed his mother about whether or not she liked cilantro. Her response gave us an interesting idea. Here's how the email conversation went...
Staff Member: By the way, do you like cilantro? I think it tastes awful and I heard
that's genetic - but hereditary?
Mom: I don't think I've ever had cilantro, but if I see it at the store, I'll get some to try. S: Get fresh cilantro leaves. Really fresh aren't as bad I don't think - but if it sits for a couple days it gets worse. M: I got the cilantro; should I taste it cold or warm? S: Probably warm. It should look like a garnish, like parsley. Survey says... M: It must be true. I've finally met a vegetable I don't like! S: Really? What does it taste like? Some people describe it as soapy. M: Mmm. not soapy, but not like food, either. At least not like a vegetable. I expected maybe bitter, because vegetables people don't like are usually bitter. This was more like a closet might smell...translated into a taste. I pictured shoes. The taste lingers, too. So there it was: shoes. We wondered, what else could cilantro taste like?
