I got the "cilantro tastes like soap" gene personally. Would much rather have gotten the, "Always remember where I left my car keys" gene, or maybe the, "Come up with witty retorts on the spot instead of two hours later in the shower" one.

I love cilantro, but I got the celery tastes bitter and spicy gene. So many people tell me it's tasteless but it has a strong, terrible taste to me.

Bitter and spicy kinda sounds like an allergy my dude

Celery tastes like that too me as well, but no allergy. I can eat it with no negative effects, other than the fact that I've had to taste celery.

It's just that a lot of mild allergies sound just like that, no big obvious ill effects
