Why does Cilantro taste like soap?

I grow cilantro and save the seeds (coriander) for cooking. My daughter claims it tastes like soap and so do other family members.
I didn't think so!
There are various claims as to why it may taste like soap. I don't know if it's genetic since not all of us in my family agree.
Maybe it's like other foods that some of us like and others don't... a taste preference?

@SW-User I like to put coriander in flour and bread fish or chicken with it and fry it. tastes lemony.
