Is it considered poor form to squeeze your lemon?

Very true. You can’t eliminate eating contaminates, but that’s not the point. Reduce the contamination to a safe level. There’s a difference between eating a speck of feces and a spoonful.

Agree.

But yea, you eat bugs, rodent hairs, and poop every day. Not in big quantities, of course. (Or at least I hope not. )

And don’t squeeze it so hard that you’ll fall right out of bed.

Along the same line (more or less), if you could use a lemon squeezer, you might be a Monkey Man.

For some reason, limes tend to look dirty even when they aren’t. I can’t bring myself to just chuck it in there.

If I notice that my lemon appears to be smeared with a spoonful of fecal matter, I always send it back!
