I really feel sorry for those cursed with the cilantro soap gene, cilantro is so tasty, one of the best herbs

Yeah, I'm one of the cursed. Sucks because i really love all kinds of wild food and i feel like I'm missing out on some great dishes.

Some freaks have a mutation while allows us to unlock a secret additional flavour that you regs just can't taste. That's what the post references.

Unfortunately that flavour is pretty much analogous to hand soap.

So it tastes nice, and also like soap. Generally soap is considered a food ruining condiment.

Also ruined are things like Thai Basil. Seriously I would cut off my left pinky to not have this wretched sense.
