It's one of those love or hate foods, isn't it? For my part, I've never had
liver in my kitchen and brussels sprouts only once (as a birthday present
for DH).

I used to hate it too. I suspect it's an acquired taste and enjoy it now
(unlike mustard, which I try to like and still can't stand).

To each their own I guess.

Yep! Tastes like soap to me. I don't care for liver (I'd eat it if I were
starving) but I love brussels sprouts! LOL I'm sure your recipe will help
someone who loves cilantro.

Rotten potatoes are far worse.

Yes, it's one of those acquired tastes..... like heroin! It doesn't
appeal at first, but you want to give it another chance. The next
time you try it, you're ok to do it again.... the cycle continues
until there is no such thing as too much cilantro.

I guess I'm a cilantro addict now. My salsa can be green with
cilantro, but I still complain there isn't enough.

I like simple and quick recipes. I'd eliminate the flour... but it
has my attention anyway (I'm not now or ever "low carbing" - if I gave
a false impression).

Thanks for posting!

OK, if we want to go the "meat" route: Opossum on the side of
the road, baking in the Texas heat for 6 days. Even the vultures
won't go near it. Possums smell bad enough alive.

Whoa, hoss. I never didn't like cilantro; I didn't have to learn to
like it; I liked it right away. Does that make me an extraterrestrial?

The absolute worst is rotten potatoes, hidden away in the back of the
pantry, long forgotten. Smells like dead mice. I grow cilantro and I will
certainly utilize your recipe. Thanks.

Me too, sf. I love cilantro. I can never use it up fast enough, though.
It always goes black and slimey before I can eat the entire bunch of it.

Ugh. My first memory was when I was a kid, we lived in the
projects, and my mother brought home the groceries, including
what I remember as a whole bag of rotten potatoes. OMG, I can
still remember the horror of is as I was elected to take the bag
down the hall to the incinerator. SHUDDER

Most recently, just a few years ago, I had a fruit fly problem that
wouldn't quit. Man, where are these flies coming from? (I know,
all kinds of jokes are springing to mind as I speak) Finally found a
liquified pile of rotten potatoes hidden in the cabinet. Oh [censored], the
stench was released upon moving the pultritude.

I only buy a few potatoes at a time, now, or a small bag that
doesn't get pushed to the back.

I usually buy potatoes and onions as I need them. The only time I buy them
in bulk is when I know I'll be using all of them in a short period of time,
like at Thanksgiving or other holidays/events.
