my grandmother used to suck on lemons. boy, was i in for a rude awakening the time i begged her to let me have a slice. she refused until i made an absolute pest out of myself. now, whenever i think about that moment all i remember is the explosion in my mouth, squinching my eyes shut and my grandmother laughing her head off. :sigh: good times, good times.

You can make a clock out of lemons, too. It’s true - I learned it on ZOOM! And you can make a clock out of a potato. What’s so great about clocks anyway? Anybody with a lemon or a potato can make one. Geez.

you could SELL those lemons—100% profit if someone gives ‘em to ya! C’mon chuckles—where’s your American Spirit? Are you a capitalist or not??

Have you ever eaten a pickled lemon? It soaks in brine and saffron for few weeks and then you eat it rind, seeds and all. Very puckery.

I encountered someone who ate an entire orange, rind and all ... granted, it wasn’t a lemon; but it was still strange.

my favorite is to combine the contents contained within the rind of a lemon with vodka and sugar… mmmm.....!!

Good God man, I couldn’t eat that many lemons. It would eat a hole in my stomach from all the acid!

That’s quite a scintillant citrus list you’ve got there, sparky.
A bit of personal trivia: I eat lemons the way other people eat oranges. Now even you must admit, that’s pretty goddamn fascinating.

Or, you can give them to your one-year-old niece when her mom isn’t looking, just to see the expression on her face when she first sucks on it...and then laugh harder when she likes it:)
