yep

do i get a prize?

no have you ever smelled one?

yep

i have!

tell me if you agree with this, when I eat something with cilantro, the taste in my mouth reminds me of the smell of a stink bug

nope, disagree. people who don't like cilantro have like, a genetic difference from us normal people.

idk about that Barb

it's true!

usually people say it tastes 'grassy'

or that it tastes like soap

^ see? it's an actual way your tastebuds work. you guys have some different tastebud DNA than i do. it's science!

you think SALSA tastes like soap?

I'm glad she understands about the stink bug cilantro thing

I was eating a good salad today and I got that taste

yeah, see, i have the tasty cilantro gene, so it is not even vaguely reminiscent in any way

but yes, there's a real Science! reason people like/dislike cilantro!

i want to like it

i don't want to be different

it's ok, Orchid! lots of people share your mutant cilantro hating tastebuds!

how come Orchid doesn't believe me when i say it's science until someone else backs me up?

I COULD HAVE BEEN A SCIENTIST

Because she was kind and gentle about it

and didn't say I wasn't NORMAL

maybe cilantro is some evil plan that only some of us can taste

i didn't say you weren't normal.. i just said i'm normal.

I think you are a word scientist

cilantro is magic. for some people it's good magic. for other people it's bad bad horrible magic.

stinky magic

I wonder if that's what Harry Potters tongue tastes like if you kiss him

hahahahahahah

does that make you a muggle?

p.s. if you can drink milk without stomach upset, you're a mutant.

maybe i just have the bad magic

ORCHID IS VOLDEMORT. I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING ABOUT YOU.

yeah maybe I just have a bunch of stink bugs living in my nasty beard

thats spray when I eat cilantro

that*
