Taste of Cilantro:
Some people like the taste of cilantro. Other people hate it. There is actually a genetic polymorphism for a receptor that influences the way a person senses the taste of cilantro. Nobody knows for sure, but it is probably a codominant trait.
Individuals with one or more copies of one variant tend to taste it as “soapy” or unpleasant.
