[edit] foetidum

i wrote the section about the genetic trait. I read this on cilantro, and I myself have this trait, together with my mother. I never tasted this plant while growing up, so education cannot play a role in this, making a genetic trait highly likely. Adding this ingredient makes food inedible for me, while I normally have very few aversions against any taste. Any link to this would be highly appreciated. The sentence about Linnaeus having this trait is pure speculation, but suggests itself. --Sarefo 22:02, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
