thanks for the link, erin. and the cilantro is beautiful but i’m one of those people who thinks it tastes like soap! i wish i didn’t! i’m always picking it out of salsas, haha.
ha! i *hated* it when i was younger, but now i love it!
Thanks for that same lunch article! I don’t always have the same lunch now but I have definitely gone through periods where I have. I am packing my son’s lunch now and he gets so little variety (sandwich either meat or cheese, vegetable leftover or cucumber, and fruit, usually strawberries). I’ve heard his teachers comment on it and hadn’t thought much of it (I guess I assumed everyone more or less had the same lunch) — now I feel a little pressure to change it up!
Cilantro tastes like soap to me, to my husband, and to one of our two sons. The older son loves cilantro.
It’s a fact that those of us who perceive cilantro as tasting like soap have a gene that makes that so. Look it up!
Wishing all well!
I know it! So funny!
