14 Things That Only People Who Hate Coriander / Cilantro Understand

It's the devil's herb. And it's in EVERYTHING.

Coriander - or cilantro to some - is the ultimate divider, you either love it, or you despise the very sight of it.

And if you happen to be one of the latter, you're constantly mocked for your OTT response - UNTIL TODAY.

The geniuses at 23andMe have discovered that the retch-inducing 'soapy' taste to the devil's herb is actually to do with your genes - not your 'picky' taste buds. And that, FYI, makes us winners.

4. And even when you pick it out, you can taste it forever.




5. When you go to any Indian restaurant ever.




4. When you go to any Mexican restaurant ever.




5. When people use it as a garnish like it’s effing parsley.
