I'm so tired of hearing about this salmonella business. Are they saying now that it may not have even been tomatoes in the first place??? I want to sit in the middle of Central Park and eat nothing but fresh salsa for a month like some kind of inane David Blaine stunt just to protest the idiocy. HOWEVER, I have also heard that cilantro may be a culprit. If all the salmonella fearmongering erases the foulest of herbs from the face of the earth, then this all will have been a Good Thing.

Ugh, every time there is a new salmonella ingredient I have to go through all of the seamlessweb menus and delete it and pretend it was never there. As if people ordering from Taco Bell are getting their Mexican Pizzas and going OMG WHERE ARE THE TOMATOES?? I'VE BEEN BAMBOOZLED!

I met a girl last weekend who was allergic to cilantro- I can only assume she is also allergic to the taste of dirty soap.

Egad, you must have had your hands full for a while now! Lettuce to spinach to melons to tomatoes to cilantro to peppers. It's retarded.

I've actually thought about claiming a cilantro allergy just because I hate it so bad. I never really made the soap connection till recently--I had always known I hated it, but I didn't get the soap thing. And then one day, BAM, I got a burrito and realized it tasted like a mouthful of laundry detergent.
