It's actually a myth in my experience, might taste soapy to some folks at first (my experience) but I love coriander and it tastes good now

[–] ccunning@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I must be the one weird fucker that thinks it tastes like soap and likes it 😅

[–] Nefara@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Haha weirdo checking in, tastes like soap but it's like refreshing? Kinda like you can say something minty tastes like toothpaste but it's not really a bad thing

[–] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Would you describe yourself as a masochist?

[–] ccunning@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah - it just tastes clean and fresh to me…it’s refreshing

I imagine you also like to wear tight fitting latex or leather and be beaten because "it's important to be disciplined sometimes"

Just had a pinch . It's 🆗️ . Do "soap gene" peops taste like really strong soapy taste or some thing ?

[–] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Apparently it does taste like soap or lye to them but I can't give you first hand testimony

[–] MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

First-hand testimony: yes, it does taste of soap. Lick a bar of soap if you want to know what it's like.

[–] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But how do I know soap tastes the same to you as it does me? What if the soap gene actually makes soap taste like cilantro?

[–] Krudler@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I used to eat hand soap when I was a kid because I loved the taste. I also love cilantro. What does any of this mean?

Hmm...not sure. Might be a super power, might not be. Either way, I'm impressed you're capable of reading and writing still.

[–] Krudler@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What do you think soap is made of bro

[–] TheReanuKeeves@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hey man, I'm not judging. I'm impressed by your resilience really. But also, don't eat soap.
