The new lemon snack trend is going viral. Is it OK to eat whole lemons?

The internet is full of all kinds of food experiments and trends. From making unique dishes to trying out strange food combinations, food trends quickly go viral. One such viral trend that is taking over the internet is browsing whole lemons, including the peel and peel. The trend gained traction after a curious TikToker discovered snacking lemons from an Italian company called Lemon Snack. The influencer revealed that in addition to being low in acidity, the small lemons also have edible peels and are rich in antioxidants, especially when consumed directly.

Although the lemons are indeed an exotic variety, their lack of availability has led social media users to try out the viral trend with regular lemons. Now the question arises: Is eating whole lemons good for your health?

With the ongoing 'lemon snack' trend, a section of social media users expressed their frustration over the same. One user wrote: “Why is my Twitter feed filled with people eating lemons and then making faces?”, while another tweeted: “I see a lot of people eating lemons so I eat one too.”

Some even admitted to eating whole lemons for a long time. One user wrote: “I eat regular lemons all the time. I just really like them,” while another said, “Aren’t all peels edible? I’ve been eating whole lemons with salt since I was a kid.”
