I agree. I love cilantro in Mexican dishes, tacos, ceviche, pico de gallo, etc. We grow it in our garden. I use it in salads as a garnish instead of parsley all the time.
Food snobs can go stick their noses up somewhere else. I’ll eat what I like, no matter what some food elitists say.
We live 75 miles from the nearest grocery store. Every time we go to St. George we load up on cilantro.
