Lemons!! When I was about 10 a friend of mine said to me, " I bet you can't eat a lemon and keep a straight face". That became my goal to eat a lemon with a straight face. Although, lemons can be used in a variety of foods from fish to ice tea, I love to eat them plain. Unlike other fruits, lemon trees produce year round, but highest consumption is in the summer. The average lemon tree yields about 500-600 pounds of lemons annually. A lemon has only 18 calories and no cholosterol or fat. They're also low in sodium. Obviously my suggestion to you is go eat a lemon! :) Recently, I found out a friend of mine, KaiN, also loves lemons. We both think we can eat more lemons than the other..so we've decided to have an online lemon eating contest. The date has not yet been set.. check back here for more details later :)! Enuff of the lemon facts..go home! 1
