I have eaten 150 lemons like people eat oranges in my life.

When I was a kid a lemon with a dash of sugar was the perfect summer thing. Even better if you freeze it.

Worried about scurvy?

No, they eat 150 lemons, why would they be worried about scurvy?

My best friend's younger sister used to eat lemons like that too. She LOVED lemons. Genuinely loved them, as it sounds like you do as well. Do you like spicy food? Any other odd food/flavors you like??

I don’t do it as often, but I used to eat lemons like one might eat a grapefruit, with salt on top. Yum.

Love spicy food and can take it extremely spicy. I like eating a peanut butter sandwich with a bowl of really spicy chili.

Dad never would allow us to do this. He used to and was told by a dentist that it is a huge no-no. Citric acid is so strong and in such high amounts it ruins enamel. He has a ton of dental issues too. I’ll take his word for it.

I used to take lemon wedges to school as a snack when I was a kid. People thought that was kinda weird though.

I ate one lemon like an orange to challenge myself once

I really do like lemon and sour flavors but my fucking tooth enamel was screaming for like 3 days after that lemon

Same! A little salt and good to go or with ice when it's really hot.

I love lemon on shaved ice with salt. My mom said they used to serve them at the local drugstore back in the day and they were called Lemon Freezes.

Freezing the juice is probably the best suggestion.

Same. I'd be friends with ops mom.
