It is exactly like that. Tastebud difference. First time I had a dish with
cilantro I sent it back saying they left soap on the dishes on something.
The waiter just grinned and asked me if I'd ever had cilantro and I told him
'not that I know of but I like trying new things so add some please'. More
giggles and i found out the dish had it in there.
They made me a dish without any cilantro and it was great.
