The cilantro thing is very specific, and I don't think applies to other foods.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Ginger=Even worse soap.
Whoa, really? I am so grateful for my not very sensitive tastebuds. The only thing that tastes like soap to me is lavender, and that's really just that I am used to lavender-scented detergents.

I was surprised, because there is almost nothing in the world that tastes bad to me. I mean, things taste less good, but usually it is how they are cooked. The only other thing I do not like is melon.
I will happily take all the ginger. Human or spice!
Oh, I once bought lavender scented dish-soap and that was a huge error. The scent on the dishes made my food taste off.
I've never had the soapy cilantro thing, until I was at a Thai restaurant once, and had a cilantro based dish that really tasted like soap. I was terrified that I didn't like cilantro anymore, but when I had some later, it was fine. I don't know if it was a particular strain of cilantro, but everyone else who had the dish liked it.
Cilantro tastes like soap to me but I can take it in tiny amounts. What does it taste like to non-soapy people?

Yeah, there are lots of dish soaps I avoid for exactly that reason. I can put up with my dishes smelling faintly like citrus, but lavender or roses or a tropical rainforest? DO NOT WANT.

Um... an herb? I am the complete opposite of a super-taster. The most I can say is that it's herby and pleasant, or herby and inoffensive. Too much of it and the whole dish tastes, I guess, kind of like lawn clippings and soap, but it has to be way, way too much for me to even begin to notice.
Cilantro tastes kind of like parsley, but different.
