How to Really Utilize a Bag of Lemons

Tali and Nadia, through a barrage of lemon puns (and I LOVE a good pun), tell us that they are going to give us ideas for all sorts of uses for lemons.  They start off telling us that Mongols invented lemonade.  See?  Already I’ve learned something I didn’t know.  They give us some other interesting tidbits about lemons…but I don’t want to sour the video for you.  See what I did there?  I made a lemon pun, too!

I will tell you one of the amazing uses for the lemon – and that is cleaning your microwave.  My microwave is always totally gross until my mom comes to visit, so I paid close attention to this part.  Apparently you just put some sliced up lemons in a bowl of water and microwave it for 3 minutes or so.  The lemon mist (well, what’s your explanation?) loosens the dried up spaghetti sauce, soup, and marshmallow (hey, don’t judge) and you can wipe it right off.  Magic.

Watch the rest of the video for more uses for the lovable lemon.
