Ever hated an ingredient so much that you want to fling your plate out the window when you realise your food has been garnished with it?
Of course you have, and we guarantee that ingredient goes by the name of coriander.
Known to some as 'The Devil's Herb', something called "science" is convinced that coriander tastes different depending on your genes, but I'm here to set the record straight once and for all.
Anyone who likes coriander is downright delusional, and here's why...
It comes on EVERYTHING, even when you ask for NONE
Sometime it's even chopped up into tiny pieces so you can't pick it out
IT TASTES LIKE SOAP
And that soapy taste overpowers every single morsel of food it ever comes into contact with
It ruins salads, pizzas, burritos, and Asian dishes across the globe
You name it, coriander has ruined it.
It contaminates even the most sacred of meals
Two of our favourite things: brunch and avocados RUINED by sneaky coriander.
It even creeps into cocktails when we least expect it
Sometimes you don't even notice that coriander is in something until it's too late
And it ruins your whole fucking day
So it's time we started treating the avoidance of coriander like a proper dietary requirement
Because, in reality, the bin is the only place for this sorry excuse of a herb
Proud coriander hater?
Wear your heart on your sleeve and let's stop this menace to society once and for all. Grab your very own tee here.

Pancakes are one of the few universal foodstuffs. Almost every culture has its own variation, and at their core, they are simple: batter, heat, and a little patience. Somehow, somewhere along the line, we let things go sideways. We let the sugar merchants win. We allowed pancakes to be hijacked by syrup-swamped, powdered-sugar-dusted, fruit-laden monstrosities. […]

Christmas Day is mid. There, I said it. Sure, it’s nice—presents under the tree, the carefully planned meal, the relentless pressure to make everything just so. But you know what’s better? Infinitely better? St. Stephen’s Day. Stephen’s Day is the Day when the fuss dies down. The pressure lifts, and the real magic of the […]
Bow down to the majestic croquette. Forget the turkey. Forget the ham, forget the stuffing, the sprouts, the gravy, and all the other overblown theatrics of Christmas dinner. They’re distractions—sideshows. The main event, the only event that truly matters, is the croquette. Croquettes are not just the best part of Christmas dinner. Croquettes are Christmas […]
Sundays are supposedly a day of ‘rest.’ That is, if your idea of “rest” involves staring into the void of your laptop screen, pretending your to-do list is “future you’s problem,” and eating a meal made entirely of cheese and fear. The “Sunday Scaries,” for the blissfully unaware, is the internet’s silly term for that […]
