... something in their genes makes cilantro taste like soap to them!

I taste the soapiness faintly but rest of it's flavors over powers that. (maybe I have mixed genes in that area)
So I love it, too! 👍

Pastas & when i make asian noodles. Its a weekly staple in our house. I use the stems to flavor soups & when simmering broth. I tie them together with cooking twine & just drop them in the pot. I also use the stems to flavor pot roasts & baked fish.

Persian cuisines also incorporate cilantro.

OMG if you haven't had vietnamese food, you should try it - very flavorful and among the healthiest cuisines.
To me Viet cuisine is a cross between indian, thai, chinese and french cuisines. Cilantro is more often used as side dishes such as a fresh herbs brought out to add to pho and other noodle soups. Google "use of cilantro in vietnamese cuisine" and you should have lots to read up on.

A self-coup (or autocoup, from the Spanish autogolpe) is a form of putsch or coup d'état in which a nation's leader, despite having come to power through legal means, dissolves or renders powerless the national legislature and unlawfully assumes extraordinary powers not granted under normal circumstances.

We should prepare for anything but I doubt that is going anywhere. If we have to put down a coup, who controls what branches of LE? Or is it simply the military won't obey, DHS are temp mercenaries? It would be like Trump pushing on a string.

Expect a whole range of illegal, angry orders ... that go nowhere. He would merely be in control of the White House, with leadership at federal agencies. No one else would follow except for the GOP Senate.

Trump is entering political bankruptcy.
