Well it is traditional in Chinese and East Indian cuisine. Pizza , that is just Hyper-modern. There is a Lebanese version of cottage fries that tosses in cilantro and garlic at the end. I have used it in kim-chee recipes. It used to be refered to as Chinese Parsley. Mrs. Grieve says it grows wild in England in the " Waste places". I always love the label "carminative" in the Herbals . Like we need more of that. We should have an anti-carminative. Sometimes a little repression is good.

I thought I didn't like cilantro (I thought it tasted like stink bugs smell) until we grew our own and were able to harvest young leaves. I find it is milder flavored and bolts less quickly if I scatter seed late summer and harvest over the winter.
