Not the new bacon....but still good!

I like it in things sometimes, but not in abundance. I do like this cilantro lime dip stuff we get at the market. That is some good stuff.

In my own experience, people fall into one of two categories, well maybe three:

Love it, hate it, meh.

But, I don't think it will overtake bacon. I mean, really...

That said I am in the Love it category. Much of family, including J, hates cilantro.

This is yummy.

I love how some people think cilantro tastes like soap and some people love it. Thankfully, I'm in the latter category. It is my favorite herb.

And LB, as far as I understand, they call it coriander here, too - only when it's in seed/ground seed form.

Sweeney Todd/Mrs. Lovett reference?

Soap? Really?

I used to hate cilantro, now I am in the 'meh' camp.

Fresh basil is quite nice, I agree with RStar.

My dad is allergic to cilantro. My mom used to think he was just fibbing and he didn't like it... until she bought that by accident instead of flat leaf parsley.

She made stuffing and practically poisoned him with the first bite or two.

Just how she cut it all up and didn't realize it was cilantro I have no idea. I guess a person smells what they expect to?

I do love basil though... what's that toasted bread with the tomato, garlic, basil, olive oil topping. OMG! To die for. I could easily make a meal out of that. AND I don't like tomatoes. (okay - I like them in stuff like that and salsa - but never on a sandwich or burger.)

You know what else I really like? Pineapple, cantelope and honeydew melon all cut up and served together. That's a really yummy combination and looks pretty too.

Bruschetta.

I like basil in cooked stuff, less fond of it as a raw leaf.

I do like cilantro, actually.

Also, I love the captions for her photos. Especially the one that says, "Cilantro goes great with EVERYTHING. EVEN ABORTIONS."
