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.

one word: garden!

Right you are, woman! The best maters are always homegrown.

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.

NUH UH, I'm gittin one o' them HIGH CLASS PROSTIMITUTES like what the governor got.

bitch, how can you NOT like cilantro????? it's so herby and verdant-tasting and NUMMY.

obviously, you are a white boy. see, we latina girls like our food like we like our men; herby and verdant-tasting (???). ok, nevermind. shut up you.

p.s.

i had sweet tea and fried okra the other night. YUM!

p.p.s.

i'm really not a latina girl.

I've tried. Lord KNOWS I've had ample opportunity, with the way it's infected the world's cuisine! But it just tastes YUCK to me. I've heard the theory that there's a genetic difference between folks whut like cilantro and folks whut don't. I believe it, as I can't imagine people would describe it as fresh and crisp and all that if it tasted to them like it does to me. IT TASTE LIKE A SOAPY PEE MILSHAIK

I can't believe you tried to get all racialist on me. :*(

Fried okra, NOM!

I despise tomatoes. Cut one open and it looks like it's still in the larval stage. Bleh. I was enjoying a few weeks of not having to say "no tomatoes" all the time.

I've eaten salads with the dreaded "regular" tomatoes, and I'm still here. :)

I don't mind cilantro, but I think it's overrated.

[davesslave.livejournal.com]

I buy organic and ignore the scare.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

You wrong for that! Good southern girls are s'posed to love maters. :D

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I've been buying tomatoes and not thinking twice about it. I got over being afeared of filth in my food years ago. :D

And yeah, that's one of the things that bugs me about cilantro (second, of course, to the taste)--that everybody just thinks they're so SUPER SPECIAL because they put CILANTRO in something. Even Taco Bell discovered it years ago, Trixie. It's not new.

Man, I've really got a screw loose about this herb, don't I?

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

I've been subsisting on Cheez Doodles and Tang for years, and I haven't had to sweat out a salmonella scare yet. ;)

[buscemi.livejournal.com]

I'm still laughing over the "soapy pee milkshake" comment. :D

[carocrow.livejournal.com]

Yes, cilantro be de debil.

[carocrow.livejournal.com]

DO NOT LISTEN, mah Flea, the *real* Latinas do not consume that shyte.

FUCKIN' A RIGHT!
