Honest question. I'm terrified of failure ;-;
Anyway, I know I'm not the only one who's wished hand soap was edible.
As someone who was a highly curious kid, I can tell you that Coriander/Cilantro does not taste like soap.
It tastes like soap smells. Soap does not taste like it smells.
You do realize that a great many folks have had their mouths 'washed out' by soap? When I tell you it tastes like soap, I'm not joking.
I've heard the saying, but no, I've never met anyone that has actually had their mouth washed out with actual soap.
Nor anyone that claims to have done it to others. Most adult are smart enough to realize that putting a cleaning agent into a childs mouth is a bad idea.
To answer your question: You did a good job, that’s the organic, locally sourced memes I crave. 5/5 would chuckle again 
I feel like this template would fit better:
Coriander btw
Unless you're talking about the seeds.. I'm pretty sure that's only what British people call it
I'm sorta in the third category. It used to taste like soap. Then I purposefully ate it a handful of times. Something flipped in my perception of it and now I like it. I read the soap thing is genetic, but I think what happened to me is more like the compounds that are shared between smelly feet and cheese where the context defines how the scent is interpreted. I'm very sensitive to some flavors. I've only had pine nuts that didn't taste rancid once in my life and that rancid flavor gets stuck in my mouth for hours. Truffle oil just tastes like mold. But Bleu cheeses taste fine. Taste and its interpretation is complex.
what is cilantro? is it a herb? that's what i see online...
It's what the Americans call coriander leaves. If you haven't come across that name either it is indeed a herb.
I had no idea the term wasn't used in other places. That's interesting. I'll have to keep that in mind in the future.
What is even more confusing is that apparently, "cilantro" is only used for the stems and leaves, while the rest of the plant (the seeds especially) are still called coriander.
Everything's edible at least once!
How about Mount Everest?
start at the top and work your way down
Eating the entire thing is not generally a requirement for something being edible. You can't eat an entire cow, yet cow meat is considered edible (and if you want to say "but you can freeze a cow and eat it bit by bit", consider an adult blue whale - I don't think one human eats that much meat in a lifetime).
You can absolutely eat rocks, most of them aren't even that bad for you if they're somewhat smooth and not too large. Or just grind it down into a powder and bake it into bread, mix it into a milkshake or make a pill out of it. "healing earth" is a thing (helps with digestion) and it's just clay, you're supposed to either take it as a pill or mix it into water.
Genuinely confused. It has a fresh scent/flavor. Would I be upset if soap smelled like it? No?? I mean I think some soaps smell like cilantro, but it's not like taking a bite out of an Irish spring bar... Can't tell if I have the soap gene or not, like what kind of soap is it supposed to taste like?
I think the fact that your refer to it as having a fresh flavor means you don't have the gene... but idk, im pretty sure i don't have it either and this whole talking about senses over the internet thing is kinda like trying to describe colors to blind people.
Yeah, I didn't know that chocolate and shrimp weren't supposed to burn when I ate them until I was about 21 when it finally clicked. Both of which were foods I enjoyed. 🤷
You'd certainly know if you did. As a kid whose many-times-stupid parent actually washed their mouth out with soap for cursing, I know for a fact that it tastes like soap to me.
Weird story:
I like cilantro, but there was one Dr. Oetker's frozen pizza that had cilantro on it that somehow tasted like garbage diapers to me. Idk, maybe someone put actual garbage diapers on it in the factory.
I don't trust frozen pizzas now... still like cilantro though.
maybe someone put actual garbage diapers on it in the factory.
That's what you get if capitalists don't allow workers sufficient bathroom breaks.
It's just an efficient use of resources. Why flush all those valuable effluents away when we can sell them?
I've never actually tasted soap, so i have no idea if i actually like the cilantro flavor or the soap flavor
Where am I in this meme? It doesn’t taste like soap, but I do not like that flavor—yuck.
You forgot the fourth group: people for which it triggers a gag reflex immediately.
