You have cow?
I lift cow!

Son of a bitch. I want the delicious juice of the lemon. It's booby trapped though. Mother nature knows I have 0 patience and think I'll get away with it this time. My Kratom tea is a crucial part of my day, and the delicious juice of the lemon is a vital component. VITAL! Yet with every squeeze a new seed comes forth, torpedoing my tea. You cannot see them or predict. There is an endless number of them contained, guarding the precious juice. WHY!!!

I am yet again relegated to using a fork to fish them out. I cannot see them, so it's the worst kind of fishing. The seed was designed with lubricity, and the perfect size to slip through the fork 95% of the time.

There's probably lemons growing in my stomach because I inevitably swallow the little demons.

Mad

Thanks. I have one. I hate doing dishes and not doing it daily. I also don't use all the precious juice each time so I keep it on the board till the next one. Stubborn.

I often ate in a a Greek diner when I lived in Boca Raton FL. One of the other regulars, of Greek extraction, always forced the edge of his spoon blade into the middle of his lemon slice. Holding the handle of the spoon in one hand, he squeezed the slice with his other hand. I asked him why he did it that way.

“I don’t know,” he said, “I’ve just always done it that way.” Likely his parents did it that way too.

I tried it myself, and discovered the reason. First, the halves of the slice can’t slip past each other, so better juice extraction. Second, for some reason, there are fewer seeds in the juice.

Any seeds that do get into the tea can be got out by dragging them against the side of cup with the spoon.



Serious about crackers

That's interesting. I could see a little leverage helping to get it all out. Maybe pin the seeds in.

Hold your had over the tea cup and squeeze the juice into that hand. The juice will go harmlessly between your fingers leaving the seeds behind. Tip, make sure your hands are clean before doing this. Also just pat your hands dry with a paper towel do not wash them, the women folk find the scent of the lemon attractive. do it right and you may find yourself sipping your tea with a good looking gal sitting in your lap.


I've stopped counting.

It says wash out the cheesecloth, I believe they meant throw out.

My wife squeezes a lot with a press, mixes 50/50 with water and fills an ice cube tray that has smaller cubes. She pops them in her water bottle. The juice won’t last long otherwise.

Enter the Lime. The sleazy cousin of the lemon, who gives it's juice for free, devoid of seed. The taste - not as good, health benefits arguable.

The convenience and utility double that of the lemon. Even still, a letdown.

I cannot escape the seed.

You should give it a try. As someone who hates seeds, and who apparently hates having to do dishes (e.g. having to wash the knife you just used to cut your whole lemon into slices), this would appear to solve both issues. Wink

Bottled lemon juice stinks as opposed to freshly squeezed.

I cut lemons and limes every weekend as a prep for my daily lunches .
My daily large 50/50 iced tea I buy at Fuel City get3 3 slices of lemon and 3 slices of lime.
The seeds float to the bottom and get sucked up thru the straw.

I used to spit the seeds out.
I started eating the little crunchy lemon seeds after reading this:
