I hate the crap. It's the worst tasting green leaf out there. I have to be careful going to Mexican restaurants anymore, they put it in everything. Five years ago Cilantro was not around as much I swear!

I HATE CILANTRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd rather eat Raw asparagus dipped in pumpkin innards! **LMAO**

According to wikipedia:

The leaves have a very different taste from the seeds, similar to parsley but "juicier" and with citrus-like notes. Some people instead perceive an unpleasant "soapy" taste and/or a rank smell. This is believed to be a genetic trait, but has yet to be fully researched.

I don't know, it's the only explanation I have for your sickness. I simply cannot understand anyone NOT liking it. I find it necessary for many dishes.

You people that are saying yes........ Cilantro is that pungent tasting small leaf side (most times mixed with salsa at restaurants) that looks almost identical to the non tasting Basil/Parsley or whatever it is that's served along the side of beef etc.

Well yes and no! Taco Bell started putting Cilantro in thier damn Steak Burritos. I get it without the (I forget the name but it's something salsa)

Fuk off. I'm an avid eater of mexican food but damn, too much of anything is a bad thing and CILANTRO is one of them! As I said before, 5 years ago you did not see Cilantro as it is now!

Its called Pico de Gallo (Pee-co Day Guy-Oh)
It translates to something like Feet of the Rooster. I think, spanish is a bit rusty.
According to Google Translation its "Tip of the Rooster"
