In reality, lemons don't grow in India!. Unfortunately, the limes are called lemons in India!.

Historically, the limes were brought to India from Persia (Iran) by Babar, the first Mogul emperor of India!.
The current variety of limes from Iran is seedless, and grown in United States!.
The limes in India are not seedless!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It really doesn't matter, haven't you heard, we live in a New Age Global Society! If lime or lemon tastes best for you, stop worrying! "Questioned the authenticity!?" what the Hell is this brother of yours, some anal-retentive bozo!?

I live in Mexico and the current fad in good steak houses is Mexican Arrachera steak with Argentinian "Chimichuri" sauce! Its heavenly! F*ck the "authenticity!"Www@FoodAQ@Com

NOUN:
A spiny evergreen shrub or tree (Citrus aurantifolia), native to Asia and having leathery leaves, fragrant white flowers, and edible fruit!.
