I am one of those people. An entire burrito can be ruined for me with just a few pieces throughout. I always feel so bad when someone gives me food with cilantro.

That sucks. I just made some enchiladas with diced cilantro stem last night (more flavor in the stem). Don't feel bad, I'm sure they don't mind when they realise it tastes bad to you. Now I'm just sad you don't get to enjoy the true taste of cilantro.

I love cilantro too, but now I have to wonder... What if we're not the ones getting the "true" taste?

I'll take my blissful ignorance with some cilantro on top.

Sounds like a plan. Even if we're not getting the true taste, it should be considered true because it's that good.

Must suck to be a such freak of nature that even God turns his head from them.

I have a mild variant of this. It's funny when it hits you in completely unsuspicious food.

[โ€“] Addv4@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah, it's used in a lot of different cultures' foods. Like it you eat Indian or Vietnamese food, theres a decent chance it could be there, not just Mexican, which is what I think a lot of people think of when cilantro is used in cooking.
