Stefan, cilantro is an herb, and bell peppers are a fruit, and I do eat
cilantro. just not in large quantities- the reason being that it tastes like
soap to me. I can ignore it in small quantities, but in large quantities, I
might just as well be biting into a bar of Ivory or something. And bell
peppers also have a strong taste I dislike, although I can ignore it if it's
a hot pepper- for one thing, it's a lot milder in hot peppers, even in the
mild hot peppers.

And there's quite a difference between disliking a couple of specific,
strong flavors, and an entire class of foods that have all sorts of
different flavors- particularly when health problems suggest that you should
eat lots of that class of foods.
