Food: Coriander Soap?

"The authoritative Oxford Companion to Food notes that the word "coriander" is said to derive from the Greek word for bedbug, that cilantro aroma "has been compared with the smell of bug-infested bedclothes" and that "Europeans often have difficulty in overcoming their initial aversion to this smell.""

Blame it on those pesky aldehydes. Or genes, or evolution. Just wait a few years for a new set of taste buds to grow. Or eat some stinging nettles, I'm sure anything would taste delicious after that.
