Honestly same, but I've grown to like the soapy aftertaste in some foods.

Haha. I love that. That’s really funny, and I can totally see it.

Cilantro isn’t super common in cooking here and I don’t go out of my way to use it so I’ve not developed a liking for it.

I compare it to the bitter notes in okay coffee. I don't crave it on its own but I can respect it, it's part of the whole

like how american chocolate has notes of vomit

i have to imagine that americans who have grown up eating that chocolate have ever so slightly more enjoyable lunch re-plays

Fun fact this is caused by American chocolate being made with semi spoiled milk!

American chocolatiers figured out that it was very hard to keep a stable milk stock so they found out you could use semi spoiled milk to make chocolate but the milk gives the chocolate a sour taste.

This is why most Americans don't like European chocolate and why most Europeans don't like American chocolate.
