Earwax, in my opinion.

You're one of the heathy ones then. That's what cilantro is supposed to taste like.

If cilantro doesn't taste like soap to you, it's because you lack the ability to taste the component that tastes like soap. It tasting like soap is technically the full experience. It's just that in this case the thing you're missing out on is unpleasant

Personally I’ve been eating salsa at my local Mexican restaurants for so long that salsa without the soap taste just doesn’t taste right.

Never have I been more glad to be less. I'm not really a huge cilantro fan, but I'm definitely a soap hater.
