Apparently my dislike of cilantro is more well known than I had thought. When I was having a colonoscopy, right before I went under, the anesthesiologist told me I might get a funny taste in my mouth. “It will taste something like cilantro,” he said. All I could do was say, “Oh no!” before falling into a fitful sleep.
Now, faithful reader Jim Yarbrough has sent me a link to www.ihatecilantro.com. Now there’s a place where all cilantro haters can unite. As of this writing, there are 2,760 members, most located in the United States. And there are even a few in South America. None in Mexico, though.
This is a fun Web site with some interesting stories. There’s even an online store where you can get “I hate cilantro” T-shirts, backpacks, coffee mugs. Even a sweater for your doggie. Chances are, dogs don’t like cilantro either. Another reason why they are our best friends. While my dog may bring a neighbors’ leftovers into my yard on occasion, he’s never arrived with any cilantro. Good dog.
