Because it’s a very popular, traditional ingredient in a lot of soups. You would have the same problem if you didn’t like onions or carrots.
Comment on Why does everyone put celery in soup stock?
Deconceptualist@leminal.space 3 weeks agoI’m asking why it’s in so many canned soups and restaurant soups. By all means make whatever you like at home.

So the foundation of european soups is the combination of celery, carrot, and onion. These provide the base that most recipes are based on and are the only required ingredients in a vegetable broth outside of spices. As with many food things you can blame the french.

I don't understand what you don't understand. It's in so many soups and recipes because people like it. Most people love chocolate, but there are a small number of people who hate it. Different people have different tastes. It could be genetic, it could be a bad association that built up in your formative years, or whatever.

If it all it comes down to just a matter of taste, that’s fine I guess. But before this thread I don’t think I’d ever heard anyone say they like celery in a dish or seek it out or appreciate its flavor or anything.

This is the beauty of the Internet! And all of us on the other side can discover that some people like you don’t like celery in soup, which is an alien concept to many of us!
Hooray mutual understanding!
