1. Lime. Quicklime, actually, is what you use to keep cadavers from stinking. nt

[Lindsay]

2. Lemon yogurt,

lime sherbet.

Also lime frozen fruit bars (aka fancy Popsicles.)

[mysteryowl]

7. Ooohhh, yes, sherbert!

[democrank]

3. Lemon

Lemon water, lemon pound cake, lemon zest in my soup, lemon lemons.

[mysteryowl]

10. I make lemon water all the time!

[dhill926]

in my gin and tonic. Lemon in my tea...

[mysteryowl]

17. I forgot about alcohol

[hlthe2b]

5. lime in a Corona

Take that conspiracy theorists!

[Fla Dem]

6. I'll take a key lime pie ove a lemon meringue every day.

But do like Lemon Meringue. Prefer a wedge of lime in my water vs a wedge of lemon.

30. +1 n/t

[Siwsan]

8. Lime Margaritas. Oh, wait. That wasn't on the list.

My bad.

[mysteryowl]

11. No worries, I seem have left out MANY other options.

[Arkansas Granny]

9. Lemon for me, thank you.

[Polly Hennessey]

12. Sorry, both. If pushed against the wall,

I would say lemon.

[mysteryowl]

14. "I pushed against the wall" Hugh?

Do you mean to squash the fruit before cutting into it?

[applegrove]

13. Lemon and lime frozen yogurt. Buy a plastic container of vanilla frozen yogurt. Let

it get soft outside the fridge for 1/2 an hour. Mix in one tablespoon each lemon and lime juice. Add the zest of one lemon and one lime. Stir into the yogurt. Put back in the freezer. Serve in chocolate cups.

[mysteryowl]

15. WOW!

[IADEMO2004]

16. Lime Gin Tonic Ice

[nocoincidences]

18. Lime.

I love lime. But I also love lemon. Just a hair not as much as lime!

[smirkymonkey]

19. Lemon!

Lemon water, lemon sorbet, lemon mousse, lemon cake, lemon yogurt, lemon on fish, lemon chicken.

There are so many foods that lemon can make better!

[DinahMoeHum]

20. I like lime better. But if a recipe specifically calls for lemon. . .

. . .I ain't gonna argue.

Either way, fresh squeezed is the only way to go, IMHO.

[mysteryowl]

21. Yes, fresh is the best flavor!

[tblue37]

22. Lemon. I actually eat lemon wedges. nt

[mysteryowl]

23. Does it make you pucker?

[tblue37]

24. No. nt

[mysteryowl]

25. As kids we would have rubbard eating contests

to see how much we could eat (raw) without puckering. It was very fun! I never won.

[tblue37]

29. I LOVE raw rhubarb. I just like sour tastes. nt

[samnsara]

26. lemon pastries..lime beverages and savory dishes

[Enter Username Here]

27. Lemon Pledge! nt

[Adsos Letter]

28. Lemon

All else is blasphemy.

[dhol82]

31. Lemon pie, lime with my gin and tonic

Each in its proper place.

[applegrove]

32. Lemon souffle is pretty good. I used to make it as a teen.

[happybird]

33. Lemon

But I love slicing limes. The beautiful scent elevates my mood.
Lime Sherbet over the lemon, though.
Hmmm. Strike that. Rainbow sherbet is the clear winner!

[Totally Tunsie]

34. At the end of the day, a nice pot of tea with lemon

while watching Rachel and Lawrence.

[sakabatou]

35. Lemon. I find lime too sour.

[DFW]

36. Depends on what for

I never order Lime Meringue pie or Key Lemon pie, if that's what the question is.

If it's mineral water with CO2, or spicy tomato juice, then lime, please. If it's Dover Sole, then lemon.

[csziggy]

37. Lime for all - key lime if possible

Key lime pie is the best citrus pie ever!

Publix used to have a key lime yogurt, which was the only yogurt I ever liked. Unfortunately it is discontinued.

I've made lime cake both from scratch and with a mix (one of the mixes used to have a key lime version with icing to match) but the only premade cake I can get is lemon, which is almost as good.
