I wonder if there's variation in how strongly someone tastes it when the gene is expressed, because I'm the same.

There's a limit, though. There was a bahn mi place at my university that would just stuff it full like it was lettuce and that was just... Too much.

I sort of tasted soap or just weirdness when I first ate cilantro but I started eating it more and more and now all I get is the delicious, green citrus sort of taste. I made spicy lime chicken soup recently and a giant handful of shredded fresh cilantro at the end made is soooo good.

For real, cilantro tastes so loving bad. I'm kinda glad it's genetic, so I don't have to wonder wtf is wrong with all the weirdos who like it.

I bought cilantro toothpaste at a fairly crunchy Canadian health-food store. It tastes great, but lacks the fresh aftertaste of the regular stuff.

This reminded me of something I used to buy people as a gag gift when I lived in GLORIOUS NIPPON: Breath Palette.

Instead of boring old minty toothpaste, how about cola toothpaste? Pumpkin? Sadly, that site doesn't list the curry variation anymore (and my brother hated it so much, he squeezed some into my mouth when I was sleeping as revenge.)

Cilantro toothpaste is the worst thing that has ever been posted in any of these threads. I include all aspics and the garbage fire pizza. All I can think of is my mom washing my mouth out with irish spring when I learned to use the phrase "gently caress you rear end in a top hat" appropriately.

Imagine being a middle ages rich person, having just spent a good deal on this...coriander spice that travelled up from the silk road, ingredients that are comparably expensive and a chef to prepare it all.
Then lol genetics


And I think my national cuisine weeded out any soapy cilantro gene havers from the gene pool i emerged from. Either by them starving to death or by driving them out of the country.

We still have a few tubes in Bitter (i.e., dark) Chocolate, Tsugaru Apple, and Japanese Plum varieties. I was too much of a wimp to try anything savory, especially because those flavors seemed counter-productive in terms of freshening breath. I tried a wider variety of their individual cups of mouthwash, but nothing too weird, for the same reason.

We picked up one tube each of black currant (plus charcoal) and of vanilla (plus baking soda) toothpaste way back when Lush still made them. We're currently finishing up a tube of white peach toothpaste that has fluoride and everything. Next up is apple-chamomile. My son is working from a tube of melon toothpaste. It's the same impulse that compels me to pick up every weird variety of potato chip that Lay's puts out: I'm a sucker for interesting flavors.

Melon toothpaste sounds kickass. I have to limit myself to one melon soda per Japan visit because otherwise I'll die of diabetes; maybe I should switch to toothpaste.

I think that one and the one where he was wondering if you could run two slow cookers at once were my favorites. There's something about the image of a soggy loaf of bread that's been warming all day and side-by-side crock pots full of chicken nuggets and mayonnaise that cracks me the heck up.

Also cilantro belongs in the garbage, sorry

Gone Phishing


So. I went looking for some dip recipes, and found some that really belong here. There is no problem with a simple dip, but these are just lazy, gross and embarrassing. All photos included are those used on the recipes.

First to the plate is a five star rated recipe simply named Chip Dip.

http://www.food.com/recipe/chip-dip-435046
This recipe includes a whopping two ingredients, consisting of one part grated cheddar to 2 parts sour cream, which is then microwaved.

Second up is "Abby's Easy Chili Dip," consisting of a can of chili and a half pound of cream cheese, melted together and "Served with chips or with a spoon."

http://www.food.com/recipe/abbys-easy-chili-dip-206557#activity-feed

However, the best of the set is easily the MAN DIP, with a rating of 4.5 stars. MAN DIP is a baked dip consisting of three layers. First comes cream cheese, followed by canned chili, and finally, grated cheddar.

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/214879/man-dip/?evt19=1

Also. Sometimes I go trawling for dumb name brand recipes. Would a few posts of those be worth posting here, or is that too unremarkable or bland?

I know it wasn't intentional, but the end of that url is ACTIVITY FEED which is pretty much the best description for all of those dips.

I hoarde magazine recipes like people used to collect Beanie Babies. I have so many and never think to use them, so this year one of my resolutions is to make at least one clipped recipe a week (though if I do two in one week I can take a break the next, since life is lovely sometimes). They promise beautiful pinterest-level picture worthy meals, but I have a feeling at least 60%, lowballing it, are going to end up looking AFP. I look forward to actually having content for the thread.

True. Although your post made me hungry for sloppy joes.

The Family recipe:

1 lb ground meat
1 can tomato sauce
1 can vegetable soup or chicken gumbo
ketchup and barbecue sauce to taste.

You know, typing the recipe doesn't make it less AFP. :doh:
