Is Parsley or Cilantro the herb that tastes like soap to those with a certain gene? Both? I often wonder what other genetic variations split the world into two groups. That’s why I’m starting a new blog series for my future self to enjoy entitled: The Cilantro Test.
Consider the genes that create an opinion of the 90s and early 2000s band The Goo Goo Dolls. For some, the group has reached Creed levels of cringe. Others, like me, are mysteriously drawn to the mellow coolness, stare-in-the-corner-and-consider-life-like-a-teenage-girl feeling of the band.
Which gene do you have?
A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one?
I saw the world spin beneath you
And scatter like ice from the spoon
That was your womb
– Black Balloon – Goo Goo Dolls
(Confession: I don’t understand these lyrics, but I appreciate rhyming spoon and womb).
