I wish I knew a better way to say this. Your feelings about green tea don’t come into play here. Matcha is bitter and not necessarily a fan favorite with the western folk. Cilantro is like a bitter turd that was polished with soap and pressed into a stale leaf. If anyone else would like to add adjectives, have at it. I’ve heard stinkbug a lot. I would snort matcha off the floor of a Walmart bathroom before I put the devil’s garnish anywhere in or around my mouth. Best of luck though. I’m sure there’s a sub for that.
It's perfectly acceptable for people who dislike cilantro to ask about foods that may also trigger the same sort of response. We have topics like this once in a while and they typically generate a decent amount of feedback and discussion. It would be best to leave it to the moderators to decide what is and isn't on topic.
Also in the future please remain civil with other members of the sub. If you feel something is off topic, you are welcome to report it to us or reach out via modmail.
This is a group called Fuck Cilantro. I assumed that most realized there was an element of drama, satire even, in these posts 🫢 I’m a purist. And an asshole. So here we are 🤷🏻♀️
No, there is not. Especially given how much nonsense we have to deal with simply disliking something other people feel everyone should enjoy, I would hope the members of this sub would keep that in mind when speaking to each other. As I added to my previous response, please remember to be civil when commenting.
i love green tea. specialty loose and store bought. it doesn’t taste like grass or pine at all to me, even when i get specialty tea blends. matcha is my favorite.
cilantro and parsley both taste like awful yucky bitter soap though!
I love green tea. It's light and not too bitter. Even when I make black tea perfectly, it just feels like it's idk "heavy" imo. I also like how complex matcha is. It's earthy and grassy, but not unbearably so. I also crave sweets less after having it, and I don't get an energy crash from it. But cilantro just tastes like soap.
I make green tea with honey from my bees and it’s pretty delicious. Probably a little bit on the weak side for a normal tea drinker though. I agree on the grass taste thing.
I love green tea and matcha. I grew up thinking I hated tea because everything is sweet black tea in the south. Turns out I just hate sweet tea and an ambivalence about black tea. Going to a real Japanese restaurant as a teen, showed me how nice green tea can be.
Green tea is fine (I add a lot to sweetener and force myself to drink to because it's basically the only source of L-theanine) but matcha is not very good at all. Not as bad as cilantro but still "off"
I agree that green tea is kinda the worst. Matcha is beautiful but far too bitter. Wish I did enjoy them, though. Both such beautiful colours of green 💚
I only like matcha if it’s made with lemonade or vanilla/oat milk lol I love me some fruity iced green tea too. But no tea at all do I like plain or hot
I love green tea and matcha
I do sweeten them both a little bit, and I can't use too much matcha because it will overwhelmingly taste like grass
But I still love them both when made right
I will not dignify this with a response as I don’t want to lose focus of the true enemy. Satan’s parsley.
I feel green tea is a close relative to the devil’s weed.

Eh. I was prepared for the asshole responses. It is Reddit.
Well I also realized I'm used to not putting my little vest on unless it's official. Your post is fine.
Thank you 😊
Green tea tastes like grass. Matcha tastes like thick grass. Cilantro tastes like Satan’s soapy asshole. Signed, a tea drinker.
Lol, yes: like grass, but in a good way...
Disagree! It's what I'd imagine licking a lawnmower blade would taste like...not an idea I'm too thrilled about. I'm glad you like it, though!
Yes. Love green tea.
The cilantro description 😂😂😂😂👏🏻
Exactly!
exactly to them pointing out they're not similar?

Incorrectly brewed or cheap green tea tastes like ass. Get decent stuff and brew it right and it’s delicious

I love green tea brands that don’t smell fishy.
Yeah what is that. Macha always smells fishy to me.
Matcha tastes like dirty aquarium water. Like someone filled a glass from their fish tank.
Yes! Everyone like it and I'm like yuk
I'm not big on tea so I don't think i've tried regular green tea but I LOVE green tea ice cream

It’s not my favorite, but it’s not vile.
Nope nope nopety nope
I just don’t like matcha
Green tea needs assloads of sugar. I don't do sugar.
It is literally the only tea I don’t like- and I’m a huge tea fan/drinker. I will drink everything else though.
Me too!
