    could be a cilantro tastes like soap or a broccoli tastes like sewage kind of thing.

    the cilantro one is genetic supposedly, the broccoli is that one guy on lemmy and I still want to know if its also genetic or any other reason but there probably aren’t enough people with the correct skill set that care enough to figure it out.

    I also don’t like rose in food but its mainly because someone I always hated as a kid, and still don’t want to be anywhere near, smelled like rose

      I love cilantro, but the taste of rose makes me think of potpourri and soap in old lady’s bathrooms. I’ve had rose flavored Turkish delight before, and it was okay, but I much prefer the other flavors.

      Most cilantro soap people are considered super tasters. We can detect the bitter tasting compound in a lot of vegetables easier than most.
