The unique taste of coriander mainly comes from a variety of aldehyde substances, such as phenylacetaldehyde, undecane, decanal, cyclodane, undecaldehyde, tridecanal, tetradecaldehyde, etc., these ingredients are mixed together to form a unique smell of coriander. People who like coriander think it's grassy, while people who don't like coriander think it smells like bed bugs.
This difference is genetically determined.
People who hate coriander have an olfactory receptor gene on their bodies, which makes people very sensitive to coriander substances, and receives all their not-so-good tastes, while some aromatic substances are automatically blocked, so friends who hate coriander are "destined".
