The genetic link seems to be to Europe and on my father's side

it is only 2 generations to Europe which is where it comes from. I'm sure there are levels of how strong it is to you but it is certainly not something like most food likes/dislikes. You can't just imagine it away.

POLL: Does cilantro taste like soap or lotion to you? (Discovering how many kindred genetic friends I have)

No, but I don't like it. Way too strong and overpowers everything else.

I like it in very small amounts. It should be an accent, not the main feature

I don't get the whole soap thing. It's super earthy tasting to me

It's because it's genetic. You either do or you don't.

It’s actually just like disliking broccoli

Well there you go 😉 I guess there is just levels and cilantro

Broccoli is essentially tasteless to me, but I don’t mind cilantro

Broccoli tastes nasty to me, but I don't mind a little cilantro

I even hate the smell of cilantro.

I told my wife for years that the vile weed tasted like soap. She didn't

No, but ginger sure does. Cilantro is AWESOME
