(No, I don't have covid)
Wait. Did you use actual lemon juice or some crap that lasts forever? That isn’t lemon juice.
All of your recipes are going to taste so much worse. It really isn’t so hard to keep lemons around. If you insist on cooking poorly, please don’t ever write a review.
Not the PP you responded to, but-- have you been to a grocery store lately? It actually IS so hard to keep lemons around, when there are shortages of everything. I'm constantly substituting ingredients because I can't find the most basic things. I bought a big bottle of lemon juice *because the store was out of lemons*. I know that the entire purpose of DCUM is to judge and criticize random internet strangers, but it's ridiculous to criticize someone for... trying to cook and grocery shop in a pandemic-induced food shortage??
