Mini Lemons – Combating Food Waste

Withered lemon quarters in the fridge, half a lemon in the fruit basket surrounded by hungry fruit flies… eventually they are thrown away. This also happens in the lemon orchards around the world when perfect lemons are left to rot for the simple reason that they are too small. This is a great shame particularly because these mini lemons are ideal for single household families. That is why Nature & More is proud to launch these organic mini lemons.

The mini lemon or “bonbon lemon” is about the size of a golf ball, wonderfully yellow, jam packed with juice and deliciously aromatic. The added advantage is that the lemons are 100%  organic. Product Manager Pieter de Keijzer explains; “Because organic lemons are not sprayed with pesticides or treated with wax you can use the zest for wide range of dishes instead of throwing it away”. These mini lemons are also ideal for cocktails, summer drinks, salads, garnishing and much much more.
