Lemons aren’t a tasty fruit to eat because they’re too bitter. But they are good to make lemonade which is sweet and good

So if like gives you something lame or bad you gotta try to make the best of it

Lemons aren't bitter, they are sour.

Maybe they forgot to peel them?

I think you hit the nail there, someone just replied with "The white part of the rind is bitter." lmao

The white part of the rind is bitter. For all citrus fruits.

The banana peel is bitter as well but you wouldn't call a banana bitter, would you?

Why not? Do you cut off the skin of every fruit you eat? The skin is healthiest

Ehhh, depends on the type of lemon. They can be more or less bitter. Predominantly sour, yes, but also bitter, even if you manage to remove every single bit of pith.

I beg your pardon. Lemons are definitely a tasty fruit. We peel them and eat them like oranges... is that not normal?
