Lemons or lemon Juice is another great, natural product that does so many things. I am listing 10 great items, but I am sure it does much more....I do vaguely remember rubbing lemons on my face when I was a kid to try to get rid of the freckles that went across my nose and top of my cheeks. Not sure if that worked, but they did fade by themselves as I got older.
1. Keeping items such as fruits and some vegetables from browning. Squirt lemon juice on potatoes, apples, pears, avocado and my favorite...guacamole!
2. Mix with some water and use to clean off cutting or chopping boards to disinfect and deodorize.
3. Gets rid of onion or garlic odors on hands
4. Mix with some water and sponge/spray onto glassware to get rid of water spots or other streaks.
5. Put left over lemon rinds in garbage disposal to freshen.
6. Add to any cleaner for an extra boost to cut odors and disinfect or just use it by itself mixed in a spray bottle with water.
7. Cuts through grease! You probably knew this one since they add it to dish soap. Use it to clean stove tops, pots/pans, etc.
8. Great way to clean and freshen microwave. Add a few slices to a bowl of water and microwave on high for about 30 or 40 seconds. Any stuck on splatters will come right off with sponge.
9. Use lemon juice to pour into ice cube trays to make 'lemon cubes". Great to add to water, or other drink concoctions for an added taste.
10. Rub some lemon onto a mosquito bite to help sooth the sting. So, if you like being outdoors or camping, might want to keep some handy in a zip lock bag!
