What it is

Organic lemons are a variety of lemon grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. Lemons are tart, acidic citrus fruits that grow on trees native to Asia but are now cultivated worldwide. They are typically harvested by hand.

Why it's used

Lemons are primarily used to add a bright, tart flavor to foods and beverages. Their juice and zest are common ingredients in dressings, marinades, baked goods, seafood dishes, and drinks. They can also act as a natural preservative by preventing oxidation in fruits and vegetables.

Health notes

Lemons are recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are a good source of Vitamin C, an antioxidant that supports the immune system. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated lemons and their components. While generally considered healthy, excessive consumption of acidic foods like lemons can potentially affect tooth enamel.

Allergen info

Lemons are not one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
