Will it do the job!? Should I cut the lemon up first!?
Thank you so much for you help!Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
I think you should totally cut it up first!. Putting the whole lemon in will make the thing start to jerk around and it will make the blade work harder and dull it faster!. It will be much easier on the thing if you cut it up first!. I dont think that thing is made for whole fruit!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Leaving the skin on will make it bitter!. Peel off the skin first before blending!. Yes you can make the juice using this type of blender!. Put a cup of water into the blender together with the lemon!. If you want to make lemon blended( a type of drink that taste like smootie), put in 2 cups of ice and the water and the lemon and it will taste really good!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you should not eat the peeling - gross - the white part of the lemon is extremely bitter but is edible - I would suggest getting as much of the pith (white part) off as possible before putting it in the blender - and I would cut it in to quarters before giving it a whirl in the blender!.

NO U IDIOT
it wont work there will be flippin chunks of lemons all up in ur blender
how about u check out the book Cooking and Blending For Dummies
and if you do mix the lemons add an inteligance boost to it you'll need itWww@FoodAQ@Com

leaving the rind on would make it extremely bitter and gross - you are better off jsut doing it by hand!. Warm the lemon slightly in the microwave first to release more juice!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

no you mixture will be to
lemon pealing and juice!.
squeeze the lemon halves and the juice will
taste better!.
