Yeah same, I pretty much replace every other herb with coriander irrespective of whether or not it actually matches the flavours.

That said, I do like dil and basil, but coriander is far superior.

The one I really don't like is parsley. That is inexplicably my sisters favourite.

I can taste the tiniest bit of parsley in any dish. It ruins it far more than cilantro lol

[MENTION=31005]misspuddingface[/MENTION] and [MENTION=11846]Sorceress[/MENTION] I'll join you. I love dill. I'll happily join any club other than the coriander club. It's the only herb that I can't abide.

If the others are going to have a coriander themed dinner party, then we can have one too, just minus the coriander. We shall celebrate all the other wonderful herbs that don't taste like soap.

Totally jumping on Illabeth's fanclub now;)

Parsley to me seems like a garnish more than anything else.

Yup. I loved those films when I was younger. I had The Black Stallion on VHS, still love that one. My favourite horsey film though is Bush Christmas, not the newer one, but the old Black and White one from 1947, I have that on VHS too, my grandma recorded it for me off the TV one year and I pretty much wore the tape down watching it over and over. I wish I could find a copy on DVD.

I have grown to appreciate parsley - not so much the leaves, although i dont mind them, but the stalks are actually great in slow cooked dishes - they don't taste like the leaves. They add a kind of nuttiness.

Now... Cinnamon ... Very rare that I like anything with cinnamon in it.

I'm stuck awake waiting for my family to Skype me for Thanksgiving so I checked their Instagram and Twitter account #s to see if your theory was spot on. I didn't bother with FB because that's a bit stale now and I'm not even sure if Tully, Drew, Tim, Ed or Boog even post on there at all.


Insta numbers (not rounding up)

Tully 199k

Drew 169k

Tahan 137k

Tim 137k

Jade 119k

Ed 109k

Boog 103k



Twitter numbers

Tully 73k

Drew 38k

Tim 33k

Tahan 24k

Ed 23k

Jade 22k

Boog 15k



Even allowing for the fact that Tully had a decent number of followers before BB whereas the others didn't and then her number now is mainly from the six weeks after she was evicted, before the others had even left the house, it seems like yeah they are the most popular if social media reach is anything to go by. Drew has a heapppppppppp of young girls who adore him so I reckon without Tully, his number would be even larger.

Ben has the third last following on Twitter (34.5k), although his instagram followers are only 93k.

Look, I don't wanna beg you stay in my fanclub or anything...

I'll have a meet & greet & signing with strictly no coriander.

Come and join! Corianderless fun for all. I agree about parsley, there are only a few dishes that I like it added too as a main herb. It is great as a garnish though. When I was in Egypt it was about the only green thing I saw for over 10 days and I'm pretty sure I ate it like lettuce, I just wanted something green!!
