I cant speak to coriander...but cilantro and parsley have always tasted a lot different to me. Though i was raised on a lot of parsley, so my palete may be more attuned to variation.

The thing is, unless you like the actual taste of the herb itself, the whole point of using it is for that very subtle note that you are talking about..if your taste buds don't think there's much of a difference, maybe try omitting the herb all together? Save the money!

I make an awesome tomato chicken curry where I put equal parts fresh mint and fresh cilantro at the very end and omg it’s so much better than without.

... but if I had parsley or coriander instead, I’d probably throw them in instead.

Cilantro and parsley are different. Coriander is cilantro seed. In UK we call them both corriander and I’ve never really cooked with the seed.

Anyway come out of the closet with the cooking. There’s no smoke alarm in there!

Doesn't matter WHAT spices I stick into my cooking, it all ends up tasting shitty. At least I'm consistent and chicks dig that.. right? Right?

all i was saying was i was not that fazed by slight similarity of parsley and cilantro .. why .. cuz i spent 10 dollars on a little bottle of cilantro when parsley (a bigger bang for your buck/ and somethin i had plenty of) could of easily done the trick. never was familiar with cilantro till a recipe called for it and i ended up saying to myself after i smelled it (cilantro) went something like

"wth, this smells like parsley! I want my money back"

Parsley and cilantro / Corriander are completely different flavours.
A recipe that would suit one would not suit the other.

I thought that parsley and crap was just to dress up the view of the bloody steak and baked potato I was eating. And I mean rare bloody for you bloody Brits/Scots/Irelanders out there.

Oh and if you think there is a difference in them than you're the elitist.
