OP, u might be colorblind. That’s clearly a half of a lime in my fridge
troglodytis@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It’s me. Hi. I’m the lemon, it’s me
scytale@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
Why you gotta call me out like that.
WhoIsTheDrizzle@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
If it’s getting bad, use it to do a deep clean on your pans. Let the half lemon soak in the pan and scrub with the rind.

Suddenly I want to make that other hot toddy

Joke’s on you, I ran into some lemon stealing whores yesterday.
XTornado@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
But…but…I was going to use it…I am sure of it!
Daft_ish@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Jokes on you. The lemon became sentient and threw me away.
Rubanski@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
NEVER!
kalpol@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Works great for freshening up the disposal
ickplant@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
This is the way, throw the lemon in there with some ice cubes.
WanakaTree@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
Jokes on you, it’s four half limes in my fridge
WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Couldn’t hold them?
abbadon420@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
It’s in my freezer
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Or just buy one of these instead of buying the lemon. It lasts I don’t know how long, but a very long time.
Railing5132@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The zest from those sucks! XD
nifty@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
This is the first time I’ve seen downvotes for something where someone is just giving an innocuous opinion. This says to me that Lemmy has foodies

I’m amused, to be honest.
JargonWagon@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Or they have access to a lemon tree.
explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
For thousands of years!
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Is that one they found in an Egyptian tomb still usable on white fish?
ailepet@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
but my mom says it helps against the bad smell
hark@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
That half a lemon doesn’t survive for more than a couple days before I just eat it straight up (if I don’t have anything else to use it for).
FreshLight@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
I feel called out… Thank you, though
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
But only the oldest one, right? Not two newer half lemons
photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
Why do you have two half lemons? Did you just use the skin?
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
That or, and this is far more likely, I missed that I already had a half lemon when I needed one.
RGB3x3@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
The peel? Rind?
Why does “Lemon Skin” freak me out so much?
mrfriki@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
No way! I’ve just put a new one there yesterday (or was it the day before?)
MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
In my house it’s a quarter bottle of lemon juice that’s been in there for like 6 months. I haven’t thrown it out because it hasn’t actually expired yet lol
QualifiedKitten@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Ummm, acktually, it was on my kitchen counter, and I threw it away like half a day ago.
RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
No.
Glowstick@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
LPT you can freeze lemons. The texture might change, but you can still use it in some cooking applications and juicing it will still be fine. (After defrosting of course)
theatomictruth@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
If I have too many lemons I’ll squeeze them into ice cube trays and store the cubes in a freezer bag
MonkderDritte@feddit.de 3 weeks ago
Or just buy concentrate from start.
ulterno@lemmy.kde.social 3 weeks ago
This is a much better idea than keeping the juice inside the lemons, as they tend to mix with juices from other parts of the lemon and change consistency.
Rusty@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Lemons were used to ward off scurvy on months long voyages without refrigeration. I think half a lemon can survive couple of weeks in my fridge.
Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
I wouldn’t be surprised, but if you cut it in half it loses a lot of its protection from the outside world.
Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
So half an onion is gtg
FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
Good to go in the bin, yes
ManniSturgis@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
No one leaves half an onion. You just put it in your food. More onion always means more good.
saltnotsugar@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
Hey man. I could totally use that for…some lemonade I could maybe make maybe.
random_character_a@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
But the mold, it’s just reaching the age of enlightenment.

Don’t save them, do that thing where you blend them up with condensed milk and ice.

That with lemons
the_grass_trainer@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I’m getting into the habit of making oleo saccharum with any leftover citrus. Throw it in a jar with a bunch of sugar on it, and tomorrow you have syrup.
ickplant@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
That’s pretty brilliant. Sadly, I just started a keto diet and can’t have sugar. Guess the lemon is going in the trash.
