Cilantro stinks ! I gave it to Lulu for the first time today and it smells really bad! She loves it though. She munches on the stems.

Some countries refer to the cilantro as coriander, so any references to "fresh coriander" or "coriander leaves" refer to cilantro.

I didn't know that either, so I looked it up. From a cooking website I found, cilantro is an herb, and coriander is the seed of this herb often used as a spice. However, in the UK it is all apparently referred to as coriander, plant and seeds.

I used to grow cilantro in my garden, and it's yummy in salsa!!!
