Title: Cilantro- a nasty, nasty weed
Post by: pissclams on August 17, 2010, 11:55:42 AM
Interesting article on cilantro for people to read

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/14/dining/14curious.html?_r=1

i think the crap tastes like ass.

If a place overloads their salsa with cilantro (think americanized tex-mex places) it does taste like soap to me.

I have this but with celary.  If something has the tiniest bit of celery in it it makes it taste like assholes.  Like, Gates BBQ sauce tastes like celery filled assholes to me.

IMO, the proper amount of cilantro to a Pico makes it taste freshy to me.  Too much, and I agree that a soapiness starts to apply.

"Street Tacos" typically have onion and cilantro...they are delicious. That is not a subjective statement, but rather objective due to the world renowned deliciousness of street tacos.

Also, neither Gates sauce nor celery (salt) taste like assholes.  Chicago Dogs have celery salt on them and they too are world renowned for their deliciousness.

ya they use a lot of celery seed in their sauce.

i love the flavor of celery but don't like the texture.


cilantro makes me want to throw up.  i can't even do the rice at chipotle.  the salsa at jose peppers has a lot of cilantro in it too. sad, really...   :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Today is a day of retribution for all the anti-cilantroites in the world.  Liberation is upon us!

No longer must we sit in the shadows inspecting each mexican meal we order, searching for the tiniest bits and pieces of this weed that has infected our food stores.

So the linked article basically states that clams is an eight foot tall genetic mutant that is predisposed to dislike an herb that the vast majority of the world finds to be quite pleasant. Color me shocked. Some real earth shattering stuff right there folks.

Love cilantro, but not a fan of people who over do it.

Hey bro, just checking in.  Wanted to let you know I've spent the past 10 years researching cilantro and the people that eat it.  Pretty much all my data has been analyzed and the reality is that the stuff sucks male genitals & balls.  The people that eat it are pretty much male genitals & balls too.  Let me know if you need any additional access to my analysis. 
Thanks-

Stopped at a place in KCK tonight that I knew would have some good stuff.  Used a crapload of cilantro on their steak/onion/cilantro taco thing.

But what screwed me up was the sign said "steak, onion, and celery".  Apparently celery and cilantro are the same thing.  Who knew?

The lady spoke about 2 words in english, but the food was great.

The funniest part of the sign was something with chicken in it, except it was spelled "chkken"

The chkken was good.

In order to recognize the overall excellence of cilantro, we reccommend it officially be called Excilantro.  Please make a note of this.
