Love Your Lemons- BY MARLA TUFARELLI LMT, CAT
Next time you go out to eat, order lemon wedges.
Lemons contain bacteria fighting agents. Squeeze the lemon into your water using your knife and fork to clean harmful bacteria off the surface. Squeeze the remaining juice in your hands and cleanse entire surface. The rind contains the oils, a more concentrated form of cleaning agent.
If you’re brave enough not to look paranoid with your guest, peel the lemon, use the rind to clean your silverware, glass, and hands.
An added plus to this cleaning technique is that water with lemon stimulates digestive enzymes to improve digestion and is excellent for internal cleansing as well.

Store was out of lemon juice yesterday when I went. Said due to a worldwide shortage of lemons. I didn't know we had a worldwide shortage of lemons.
That's probably what I get for not being on the thread every day isn't it? I bet if I'd been reading here I would have known about the lemon shortage.
