	Yes, you can grow cilantro in Massachusetts, or at least
you can grow it in Ohio, where it is an annual. As far as annuals
go, Massachusetts and Ohio are much the same. Unfortunately, using
it fresh will not keep your friends who think it tastes like soap
from complaining; I find it tastes horribly like soap straight from
the plant, and in fact avoid even touching it because I can't stand
the scent that rubs off on my hands. My father grows it from seed,
partly because he loves it, and partly because rabbits agree with me, so
that it will to a small extent shield dill from them.
