Lemon flavoured tree cancer
When life gives you lemons…
Demand to see life’s manager.
Cthulhemon.
“Normal” lemons are mutants. They’re a hybrid of two different Citrus species, citron and bitter orange, that both look weirder than lemons. In fact, one variety of citron, Citrus medica var. sarcodactylis, is nicknamed “Buddha’s hand” and looks like this:
So what it appears (to me, at least, as someone who isn’t a biologist or citrus expert) is that that lemon happened to mutate again in such a way that it started partially expressing an ancestral form.
That’s a goddamn shuttlecock
What
WHATHow can I unsubscribe from Lemon Facts?
I don’t know when it’s gonna be and I don’t make any promises, but one day you’ll be browsing Lemmy minding your own business, and – BAM! – lemon fact. There’s nothing you can do about it.
(…Well, except maybe staying away from topics in which it would be relevant to post facts about lemons. That’d probably work.)
Life will give you lemons wheter you want it or not. There’s no unsubscribing.
Can you give more your subscription? I’d like more Lemon Facts.
partially expressing an ancestral form
This is just sciency words for eldritch horror
Could also be a way of calling someone a monkey.
“Looks like you’re partially expressing an ancestral form!”
The all-skin lemon
I just looked up what these look like on the inside and am quite disappointed
I think you’re lying. I think you are a biologist or at least a citrus expert! Liar!
I’m no lemonologist but it looks like it could maybe be a very severe case of Citrus Bud Mites: https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/384904-Aceria-sheldoni

Does look kind of similar doesn’t it.

It’s a keming issue. An o got too close to the l and we ended up with a demon.
biblically accurate lemon
Lemon of the Crucible
Equip to make lemonade.
A vestige of the crucible of primordial life. Born partially of devolution, it was considered a signifier of the divine in ancient times, but is now increasingly disdained as an impurity as civilization has advanced.
When life gives you eldritch lemons, don’t make eldritch lemonade. Make life take the eldritch lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn eldritch lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give teft eldritch lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna sacrifice your family! With the eldritch lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible eldritch lemon that burns your house down!
Much like a rat king this should be known as a lemon king
Or Earl of Lemongrab
A Lemperor
Thanks, buttpilgrim.
Mutant lemon. If it tastes good, you should breed it and create a new product ;)
