Sometimes you don't have sugar or water onhand and can't actually make lemonade. You just gotta eat the lemons. It sucks but you gotta.

I've made this cake a couple of times. It's quite good.

Throw them at the clown who gave them to you while you were asking for something to eat.
Make lemonade. - Get mad!! Make life take the lemons back!!
When life gives you lemons...
Demand to see lifeβs manager! Invent combustible lemons and burn lifeβs house down!
Make love
Not war
Cave Johnson answered that but I can't recall and quote all that.
When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!
If life also gives you copper wire and a USB-C plug, you could make a comically large and inefficient charger.
Salted preserved lemons are delicious. Quarter them lengthwise but not all the way to the end, then smash them down into a jar with lots of salt, pack in as many as you can. Seal it up and give it a shake off and on for a few days, then leave it in the refrigerator for a month. Yum. Use the peels in cooking, they are salty, sour, bright tasting.
Build a lemon cannon and fire them right back.
Give them to me.
I agree. Give them to this person. ^^
I mean, you make lemonade. Not just because of the adage, but because lemonade is delicious.
Make lemonade.
I like to buy discounted old lemons. I wrap them up and toss them in the freezer. They thaw ugly but are still good for cooking.
Good idea In what do you wrap them? Aluminium foil? Or caj I put them in freezer bags?
Plastic wrap, but a freezer bag with the air squeezed out would work too.
Squeeze half of the lemon, put it into shaker. Add a lot of ice and two teaspoons of powdered sugar. Shake it hard. Pour everything into a glass and add 5cl of gin. Steer it gently and enjoy your gin fix.
Is that like a gin Old-Fashioned?
I know it as "gin fix".
Make lemon cake π°
Cocaine
I'll do you one further : Cocainade
Hell yes, rocket propelled cocainades
Grill them. Seriously.
Does it work on a frying pan (without oil, of course)? Asking for a friend.
Yes! You can put them facedown while you're roasting a chicken in the pan, for example.
Thank you! I'm gonna do it.
"Alright lemons, I'm asking the questions round here, you got that?β
That sounds illegal
It's amazing. The sugars caramelize and the bitterness falls away, leaving you with the perfect accompaniment to grilled meats or veggies.
Sounds cool but also sacrilege.
pull out the zester and take off that outer rine. slice it into haves and squeeze out all of the juice, and throw the pulp away. sprinkle the juice over a nice piece of fish and some salad. cook the fish and serve the salad. problems solved.
Find a fuck-load of sugar and carbonated water
Good luck :)
The last time life gave me lemons, I gave them to someone starving on the streets.
Honestly if I was homeless and someone handed me a lemon⦠like, just a lemon⦠desperate times I guess
No risk of scurvy at least.
