My Story - My Least Favorite Food

I don't know why, but I don't like coriander. A lot of people tell me it's delicious, but I can't understand its appeal. It smells like a stink bug and feels like grass in my mouth. The only time I'll eat it is if I'm a guest. Luckily it's not common in Japan and easy to avoid.


なぜかわからないけど、パクチーが好きになれない。美味しいとたくさんの人に言われるけど、その魅力が理解できない。カメムシのような臭いがするし、口に入れると草のような感じがする。私がそれを食べるのは招かれているときだけだ。幸いにも日本では一般的ではないので避けやすい。

It smells like a stinky bug and feels like grass in my mouth.

A stink bug isn't a valid noun in English. The noun you have used is 'bug'. The adjective 'stinky' describes the bug.

The only time I'll eat it is if I'm a guest.

Luckily, it's not common in Japan and easy to avoid.

Added a comma after 'Luckily'

Your English is easily understood by any English speaker. There might be an occasional need for clarification - but that's alright.
