Meme Thread... no politics

That looks like it's in pretty decent condition considering. I'm pretty sure it needs a new engine which can be pricy, but engines are wear items on these and replacement is quite literally the same as daily maintenance anyway.

Huh, I don't mind cilantro.

By and large, the people who don't like cilantro - those for whom it tastes like soap - have Ashkenazi heritage. There is also an Asian ancestry that tends not to like it - I think Korean.

Why?

Here we present the results of a genome-wide association study among 14,000 participants who reported whether cilantro tasted soapy, with replication in a distinct set of 11,000 people who declared whether they liked cilantro or not. And lo and behold, they found a spot on chromosome 11 that seemed to match. What’s there? A gene called OR6A2, which enables us to smell certain chemicals like (E)-2-decenal, a primary constituent of cilantro and also the defensive secretions of stink bugs. 

The goose thing reminds me of this children's book...

So why is it then that I can smell stink bugs but I like cilantro?
