Seems like a lot of fuss over some pickle juice.

Show up to a taco spot with @williamt44 and ask for light cilantro and they'd probably kick me out of the place. I've definitely been that guy who asks for "just a tiny bit" at the taqueria and the person behind the counter gives me the death stare. But honestly after trying it the real way I get it now. That mountain of cilantro and a squeeze of lime is what makes a taco actually taste like something instead of just a sad tortilla with meat.

I read that some folks heat and hammer the edge back, but grinding's usually the safest bet.
