cilantro
Divisive green garnish
Cilantro is the leaves and stems of the coriander plant, used as an herb in Mexican, Asian, and other cuisines.
The word is standard in American English; British English typically uses coriander for both the leaves and the seeds.
To some people, cilantro tastes bright and citrusy; to others, it tastes like soap—a difference linked to genetics.
