Thread: Vodka and Ton With Lime? BYO..

I love limes better than lemons. Funny, in Mexico, they call it backwards. LIMON is what we call a LIME and LIMA is what they call a LEMON. I Mexico, they kind of like the LEMON better than the LIME. I like the bitter flavor of lime. I squeeze them into a coke or a beer. I use them to clean my fingers and hands after eating seafood. It really neutralizes the fishy flavor. I use them for hicups. I use them in tea. I use them in Mexican food on the chips and salsa, use them on tortilla soup. Nothing like a nice bag of limes. In Mexico, they sell for very cheap. They are abundunt in the trees. In fact, I've seen lime trees growing in the wild on Central American beaches. I've picked lime trees. I think LIMES are definately one of earths great deals. Lot of bang for the penny or two. (In Mexico but who knows what they go for lately?) If you ever go to CANCUN or anywhere in the Yucatan, be sure to order a SOPA DE LIMA. To me, its just a tortilla soup really, but they like to throw a slice of LEMON (Not lime) in the middle of the soup. For me, I'll just squeeze a half lime and throw the squeezed portion in the soup. There is nothing like a LIME.

Here are some interesting facts. LIME JUICE neutralizes corrosion on Nicad batteries and used to clean those. (Aviation batteries.) Ever get a cut, pour some corona with lime over your cut if you happen to be out. Lime citric acid can kill fungus.

Fantastic 29! I was checking my terminals on my battery the other day and I lost my steel brush. I will get the lime and a toothbrush and wipe clean..

Remember, I said NICAD batteries for lime juice. Here is how to clean your CAR batteries from corrosion which is composed of different properties than that of a NICAD. Take a cup or bucket, mix BAKING SODA with water. Say about 3 to 1 or so. Not too heavy but it can't hurt if you overdo it with baking soda. Pull both battery terminals off then, mix it together (Baking soda and water) and just pour it on your battery. I like to take the terminals off the batteries, both positive and negative, pull the battery out, and throw the baking soda with water mixture on the battery rack, because if your battery is corroding at the terminals, chances are some of the corrosion has seaped down into the battery rack. So clean all evidence of corrosion with backing soda, wipe off with towels or rags, and pour clean water to wash away the baking soda that by now, since interacting with the corrosion has created a foamy dirty look. Just wash it or wipe it away. Clean your battery terminals too with baking soda, and then take a brush to clean the part that makes contact to the battery, for a clean connection. (Battery post terminal lug brush cleaners). Then put some kind of protectant on your terminal lugs after you install them. Some grease, or vaseline works too. You can use cola for cleaning corrosion too, or COKE but I prefer baking soda. Coke is sweet, can attract a bunch of ants here in SE Texas. The ones that bite.
