ChandlerWicks Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Love the smell! When I worked in a grocery store, I could smell it from the end of the conveyor belt as it was loaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 I am in the cilantro is horrid, evil stuff. Even the slightest bit in my mouth makes me want to scrub with soap and a brillo pad. Blech. Coriander seeds too. Genetic or not corianderwill never end up in my shopping basket. I'm also one of those who thinks leftovers always taste off. No reheated meat or potatoes for me. Sadness.

Stella1952 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 I find articles about how different people perceive fragrance to be very interesting and good stuff to know about, especially since most of us are selling fragranced products.
