I, unironically, love the little "soap" gumdrops. Cilantro tastes nothing like them.

I taste the soap, and I like it.

I could never tell if it tasted like soap, or if that's just how it's supposed to taste and I'm just not a huge fan. Either way, it wasn't bad enough for me to bother avoiding it, and at this point I'm coming around.

Someone swore a lot when they were young, and liked the punishment.

Lol, allergies but yeah

If I catch even a hint of it, I can’t follow up with another bite. It’s probably one of my least favorite common flavors.

If I could make cilantro go extinct, I would

Soap? Yeah me too

Me and some of my siblings loved it growing up, while my mom and the other siblings hated it (big family). Many years later when talking about it we found out it was a 60/40 split in the family for not having/having the cilantro=soap gene.

Cilantro belongs on almost anything. Those who disagree can eat soap.

cilantro belongs in the compost

When i was a kid it tasted like soap, but by the time i was a teenager it tasted like a delicious herb.
