What petty hill will you die on?
For me I say that a truck with a cab longer than its bed is not a truck, but an SUV with an overgrown bumper.

People cannot handle hot takes so I will have to refrain from being too honest so here is an easy one: Cilantro is disgusting, how some can eat dish soap on their food is baffling.

That's actually genetic.
They found that those people who said cilantro tastes like soap share a common smell-receptor gene cluster called OR6A2. This gene cluster picks up the scent of aldehyde chemicals.

If you didn't already know, the Coriander/Cilantro tastes like soap thing is actually genetic. You are certainly not the only one who thinks it tastes like soap, and the mutation is fairly common.
To those of us without it, Coriander has a herb-y, citrus-y taste which many people like, as such it ends up on many dishes.

Yep. It was interesting when I bought some jarred dried cilantro and my mum and I both smelled/tasted it. I wanted to make sure we didn't have The Cilantro Problem so I could use it. Turns out I don't have it and my mum does, so I avoid using it in dishes for the both of us.

There is a genetic component to it. A huge chunk of people just...don't taste what you're tasting.

I think cilantro tastes a little soapy but I still put it on my food.
