Cilantro
Observations:
Smell: It has an unusual smell, almost foul. Smells a little like dish soap, which doesn’t smell bad.
It smells undesirable, yet I have a desire to smell it again.
Taste: It doesn’t seem to have a taste, especially when it’s mixed in with other foods and chopped up. When I pinch my nose it has no taste.
When you eat it, it leaves an aftertaste that makes you want something else to eat.
It smells like a mixture between lettuce and dish soap.
For some reason, it gives me a craving for pasta. It seems like it would be really good in it.
For quite a while after eating it, had the taste of it in my mouth. The taste was there until the next day.
Final Thoughts:
Cilantro is an interesting food. While it seems like it’s made to me mixed into another dish, it’s perfectly fine on it’s own. Also, when smelling it, it smells very bad, but I wanted to smell it more, like I was getting addicted to it. When you eat it, however, it tastes bad after the first few seconds and you continue to taste it well after you eat it. Another interesting thing I found was that if you pinch your nose while you eat it, it doesn’t taste bad. In fact, it doesn’t taste like anything. That shows that it actually has no taste. You just smell it while it’s in your mouth, and that’s why it “tastes” bad.
Overall, I don’t really mind Cilantro. It’s kind of boring, but it’s fun to see peoples’ reactions when they eat it.
