Lemon Shortage

Date: July 17, 2014 09:08PM I had to pay $1.49 each for organic lemons today at the grocery store and there were no limes at all. Someone in line said she heard on tv that there is a lemon and lime shortage.
Any insiders here who know what's really going on? All I've just found is some months old news in a goggle search that claims the Mexican drug cartel is behind the lime shortage and that Bolivia is ready to jump in and fill the market void. It all sounds kind of crazy. Re: Lemon Shortage

Thanks for your mighty effort. It is safe to say that the Conductivity Diet is bad for your health. Too much oil is detrimental to your health. Re: Lemon Shortage

If you are serious, would that work out financially for you when gas is factored in? I don't see how og is needed unless you want the peel, too. Re: Lemon Shortage

[nypost.com] Maybe the shortage is over in cities but here in the boonies it doesn't seem to be... [www.chron.com] Re: Lemon Shortage

Date: July 18, 2014 08:11PM For those who have never experienced making their own essential oils sun tea from organic zests you really have an awesome treat to look forward to if you try it.
Lemon zest sun tea is way more awesome tasting than it sounds and is very good medicine. I wouldn't think of throwing out my fresh raw essential oil filled organic citrus zests. I always have enough to put in the rest of my dishes and soups, etc. They freeze very well and I also dehydrate them for powdering. My Zip Zester is one of my favorite raw kitchen tools. If something ever happened to it I would immediately replace it with a new one... [www.youtube.com] Re: Lemon Shortage
