You do know an aversion to cilantro is genetic, right?  Some people can taste the aldehydes in cilantro that others can't, and it give it a soapy flavor.

So I am genetically superior. Already knew it because of my skin tone but it is nice that cilantro confirms it.

My friends and I pitched a show to Adult Swim about six years ago called "The Amazing Super Ultra Mega Fantastic Force 5000 Team" that featured a bunch of people with really shitty super powers.  Like, one guy had a REALLY bendy thumb, another guy could, if he stood still and concentrated really hard, turn his hand blue.  Another guy always knew WHEN.  My super power was the ability to telepathically communicate with corn.

Basically, but even more useless.  The way we always would get out of trouble for the three episodes we wrote was that one guy's super power was the ability to always show up in the right place at the right time and shoot the villain in the head.

It didn't get picked up because I guess Squidibillies and Super Jail were better shows.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
It didn't get picked up because the programming people at AS are fucking idiots- seriously after spending four months going back and forth with them over this show we were all left with the impression that any success they ever had was in spite of their own best efforts.  And these were people we knew, hung out with, drank with, etc etc.  If we couldn't get a show with pretty obvious promise done through them... let's just say that was the last time I ever tried to do anything in the field.

The problem is most people use way too much cilantro. The thing with cilantro is that it sucks the taste out of ANYTHING it is in. Have a great burrito covered in cilantro? Now you have a burrito that tastes like nothing but cilantro. Cilantro ruins more meals and dishes than what it helps. Shit, shit, shit.

Well, my exposure to cilantro is when other people cook with it. I've never cooked with it myself. I've had bad experiences. The other day, the reason that I made this thread, was because my dad made some pasta noodles, and bought cilantro. I held my breath as I was washing it. He ended up putting the entire thing in the pot with the pasta along with the spinach (:drool).  :yuck :-X

+1 cilantro hate

always leave it out of my recipes

always take it out of my food

cilantro does nothing but ruin otherwise delicious dishes

Colorblind, hates cilantro AND playing SWTOR online instead of D3.  Yup, somebody's got defective genes alright :P

Yes, there's a super fanpatch 6 years in the making (http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-sith-lords-restored-content-mod-tslrcm) and it works with the Steam install.
+ widescreen mod (16:9) and resolution mod (native 1920x1080)
+ cheating my way (http://knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.com/info/cheatskotor2) through all the tedious D20 combat on the PC version

The problem is most people use way too much cilantro. The thing with cilantro is that it sucks the taste out of ANYTHING it is in. Have a great burrito covered in cilantro? Now you have a burrito that tastes like nothing but cilantro. Cilantro ruins more meals and dishes than what it helps. Shit, shit, shit.

ANY cilantro is too much cilantro.  I can taste it.  Even if it was there and removed (ie accidentally put in), I can still taste the residue.  I don't mind if other people eat it, I just don't want it in my own food.

No it's the same (kinda) yet very different.

When someone says coriander it is assumed to be the seeds, but we say coriander leaves or coriander seeds to refer to either. Cilantro just doesnt exist as a word for us (and I assume most of the commonwealth/europe/asia apart from the 51st state of the United Kingdom) Charlie can confirm this.

Cilantro is awesome when used properly.

It makes the freshest salsa taste better, and the guacamole explode in your mouth with herbaceous flavor. I chop it up and mix it into my egg frittatas with jalapenos and cheese. It also makes for one hell of a great herb butter with garlic. And unlike parsley, it has a well defined taste character to help bring up other flavors to the surface without harming the flavors.

No, sir casa del pueblo doesn't put that shit in their burrito.  That's why I love that place.  So many restaurants will put rice, sour cream, avocado/guacamole or cilantro or any other disgusting shit in their burrito.  casa del pueblo keeps it simple: lettuce, tomato, beans, cheese, fajita.  The way it should be.

Peach salsa is amazing.  You better share!!

I made sure the guacamole didn't have cilantro.

Edit - In my own defense I'm a pretty adventurous eater.

WELL.

I hope you're all FUCKING HAPPY with your cilantro bashing ridiculousness. The Chevy's by my house WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. And it's all your fault.

Where am I going to get mediocre texmex now?!

Fml just kill me. Pos Touch, take my husband to that good Mexican restaurant after I die. He'll be in good hands with you and Shaka.

My best friend's parents drug me to a Chevy's when I was visiting them in Southern California years ago. I was really confused why we were going there instead of somewhere with actual Mexican food, but whatever.

No to Cilantro? No to Avo?

I don't know you people anymore.
its like when you meet a person and youre like wow this person is pretty intelligent and engaging and then you grab a bite to eat with him/her and they end up being a picky little unadventurous ham sandwich eating bitch when the menus come out

OK let me translate for you: flour tortilla, roast "Mediterranean" style pork, black beans, sour cream, cheese, hot sauce, and guacamole (which had lime juice and tomatoes).

I'm confused.  Pitas are made with leavened bread (that have pockets stuffed) and have origins in the Old World whereas burritos are made with tortillas (stuffing wrapped) and have origins in Mexico.  ???

I'm not a HUGE fan of pitas but don't they usually have gyro meat or kebabs/grilled chunks of meat?  ???
