McB,

You might find it in the U.K. if you have any stores near you that carry fresh produce in any quantity.  I would think that it might come from a Mediterranean area.  Perhaps Spain.  It might be easier to find it dried, but you know how spices are when they are dehydrated.  I wouldn't be surprised if you found it there, but you might have to find a specialty store.  You might find a local store through the WWW if you don't know of one.  Look on Google if you want to find out more about where it is grown.  If I remember to do it, I may look there myself, just out of curiosity.  JJ

McB,
Cilantro.  Depending on where you live, it should be easy to find.  It's a round leafed spice that comes about the same way that fresh parsely does.  It's a snap to find in SW U.S.  It's almost a staple of Mexican Food.  Parsely has a similar flavor, and can be substituted, but the taste of parsely is ultra wimpy next to Cilantro.    JJ
