To think this offensive thing should be banned

Fresh coriander . To me, when I eat it accidentally, it tastes like nasty bitter soap.

I've got a lovely spiced Indian chicken breast with KEENOWAH quinoa for lunch from the local deli and there is coriander chopped up into millions of little bits and I can't pick it out.

On second thoughts maybe this should go into the first world problems thread.

ElphabaTheGreen that's amazing!

Next time in a restaurant "Ok have the Thai curry, hold the stink bug"

No other food can be banned until parsnips are made illegal. Filth, that's what they are.

YANBU It tastes like soap! i'm sure its a genetic thing, affects your taste receptors or something

And cardamon. Eugh!

Yep, coriander is horrid, tastes like soap and should be banned from food! OP YANBU!

Love coriander. OH and his son can't stand cucumber and think it has a vile strong taste - his other 2 kids think it doesn't taste of anything - I think it tastes fine. Quite like it.

I've just put a frittata-thingy in the oven made with beaten eggs, obviously, and fried leftovers:

sliced onions;
sliced potatoes;
sliced courgettes;
sliced mushroom;
chopped tomato;
grated cheese;
salt, pepper and dried oregano.

so far so good, but I added a bit of tuna, sweetcorn and mayonnaise mix and some extra sweetcorn from the tin [oops].

It has about 15 minutes to go and then about 10 minutes to cool down.

Wish me luck.

Seahorses Coriander helps poorly bunnies by getting their digestion going again after illness and is a good idea to give regulary to fussy rabbits to keep them eating.

Been madly refreshing this thread hoping to find out about the bunnies, BuzzardBird .

We used to give dandelions and clover to our rabbits as a treat - they did have outdoor access but loved them in their food bowls. If I ever have another (v unlikely) I'll remember to give them coriander.

Coriander to me tastes like a mouthful of fairy liquid, disgusting. Cardamon is the same.
So do the people that like coriander not taste the soap taste that the rest of us do? Very strange

The coriander totally overwhelms everything else on the plate as well so the only taste you can distinguish is an overwhelming soapy one, completely ruins any meal

I absolutely love the taste of coriander, it doesn't taste at all soapy to me, thankfully.

I also love celery and brussels sprouts, much to my DC's disgust.

I live carrot and coriander soup. It's my favourite soup.

It don't taste like soap though.

celery is the devils food.
As are mushrooms (sorry) and caviar

I hate fresh coriander. When I used to order from the local Thai takeaway, I always asked them to leave it out.

There used to be a sweet when I was little called something like fairy gems, tiny gummy sweets. The white ones tasted of soap to me - perhaps they were coriander flavoured :o

limitedperiodonly Set another place, I'm on my way and hungry!

I hate coriander - horrible horrible taste

Makes it all soapy

My mum hates it too - genetics?

I would munch on it like a cow if I could. YABU :)

I take it all back. SAVE THE BUNNIES! Yay for coriander. Just don't put it in my food, ok?

Soupdragon - floral gums yum!

I LOVE CORIANDER! It's like the best herb, use buckets of the stuff in our house.

I am going to attempt (once again) to grow it in the spring as I eat it like a rabbit too. My bunnies have happy tummies :)

Fresh coriander is foul.
Coriander the spice is one of the gifts of the gods.

PS Do all you coriander-haters out there also hate the devil's own mini cabbages sprouts

I think you need to be over 40 to like coriander

No, love sprouts, hate coriander, so no correlation there.
