fucking cilantro is the bane of my existence

[wasabi_poptart]

What is it with restaurants that use cilantro as a garnish? How many times do I have to send my food back and tell them to make it over, this time without the damn cilantro, before they clue into the reality that there are people out there who can't stand the stuff?

I mean, if you insist on using it because parsley isn't fancy enough for you or whatevs, at least give me fair warning and put it on the fucking menu.

i have the same problem with mint, esp. with desserts and sometimes cocktails. "do you really want me to hork up all the lovely food i just ate?"

You know, if they just willy-nilly sprinkled peanuts all over everything, they'd have a lawsuit on their hands! I think the herb lobby needs better lawyers.
