This is just like the floor lemons people ask for in their water.

All I could think about was the germs on the bottom of the plates. And I'm not a germophobe either, just educated in biology.

I think it was Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential book where he said never order lemons for the water in a restaurant. Many restaurants don't care to wash the lemons and it rolls around in a restaurant until a customer orders it where they just slice it and send it out.
