Hi there!
No, I believe we haven't yet! You can call me Lemon. It's nice to meet you!
Would you like to try some fresh lemonade for this warm summer day?
I've been travelling a lot, looking for ways to improve or renovate my lemonade. I discovered lots of new flavors and met many new friends. But now I'm back and ready to answer all your asks!
ever heard of combustible lemons? and, if so,, do you happen to know where I can get some?
"C.... Combustible lemons?? You want lemons that will ignite into flames? You'd have to genetically engineer them to be combustible, I suppose I could help with that but I should warn that plants and I do NOT have a very good relationship...
Wait, you sell lemonade yes? What sort of sick experiment are you trying to test here and can I join in?"
A D0ctor who isn't qualified for this here with a fun fact! Some citrus skins actually do have flammable components in them!
So if, say, someone were to genetically engineer lemons to have hightened levels of these chemicals in the flesh and then feed about two of them to a lizard, that person would have theoretically created what may be described as a tiny dragon.
On an unrelated note, I am no longer allowed in the animal research division of the building.

You see, before I opened my stand, I used to work a part time job at the Aperture Science Enrichment Center. Mostly taking notes and overseeing testing chambers. Here’s a selfie I took on my first day on the job!
The stuff I saw in there was incredible. Quantum traveling, crazy science goop that made you jump really high, or made you go really fast. Lasers, companion cubes, A.I.s... Anything you can think of, there was probably a test for it being done in the facility. It was huge, too! Filled with test chambers that volunteer subjects would solve with the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device.
(There’s me with a tiny clipboard, taking notes!)
Every now and then, I’d hear some of my peers talking about “combustible lemons”. Apparently, it was an experiment the old CEO of the company wanted to try out a few months before I came into work.
His name was Cave Johnson. I’m not sure if he ever got around to making them. I didn’t get to meet him, either. He died a bit before I joined the Enrichment Center.
Sadly, the company had some troubles with a rouge A.I., and I had to stop working there. I’m pretty sure no one’s down there anymore. It’s a shame they had to shut everything down.
After that, I basically forgot all about the lemons. I started working on my stand, and perfecting my lemonade recipe. Until one day, when business was slow, and I had time to think about new recipes and snacks to sell...
...I suddenly remembered! Combustible lemons!
I thought, if I could somehow control the explosive component of these lemons, maybe I could make some sort of fizzy lemonade. Fizzier than sparkling water, but not fizzy enough that it becomes uncomfortable to drink. Like a cooler type of soda, if you will.
(I also wondered about making the uncomfortable type of fizzy lemonade on purpose, too. Maybe to sell it during April fools, or to give to your enemies? I think it’d be a great business.)
So that’s the story behind my lemon inquiry!
[Since you’re a scientist (like the ones I worked with), I thought you might know where to get some].
But it’s perfectly alright if you don’t!!
I’m The Lemonade-ler, and I make all-natural, ice-cold, fresh lemonade! It’s only 3.98 a cup, and it’s a satisfaction guaranteed drink! What makes this lemonade special is the ingredients I use. Two parts lemon juice, one part water, and one part truffula fruit juice. It gives it an extra bit of flavor and takes care of the sweetness, which means I don’t have to use as much sugar as traditional lemoade uses. My stand is open from 10 am to 9 pm every day! Feel free to visit anytime, and don’t be afraid to ask me anything! I’ll see you around! 💛
