Why are Meyer Lemons are so Popular?Here are just a few reasons why sweet Meyer lemons are so, so popular... Fantastic smell and unique taste. Relish Magazine Meyers are sweeter, more aromatic and
flavorful than ‘regular’ lemons. And their smooth, thin skin is entirely
edible, so you can use the whole fruit. (4) A sweet tartness that gives a kick to everything. They're so sweet, and yet they have a nice tartness
that gives a kick to everything. (9) — Donia Bijan, Chef-ownerL'Amie Donia Restaurant Palo Alto, California Beloved by Chefs The Meyer lemon is a darling of farmer's markets and beloved by chefs and home cooks. Its aromatic, slightly sweet quality brightens desserts, sauces, salads and roasts.” (3) Listen to “The Meyer Lemon" National Public Radio Best lemon I’ve ever had. I have a Meyer lemon tree in a pot at my house that produces exactly one Meyer lemon a year. I'm not sure why my tree only produces one lemon, but I can tell you that, honestly, it is the best lemon I've ever had (at least last year's crop). I plan on enjoying my glass of Meyer lemonade next week. (4) — Travis Rosenthal, Owner So popular there are Meyer Lemon shortages. Meyer lemons have become so popular with restaurant chefs and home cooks alike that we suffer periodic shortages. (14) A cut above. You can use a Meyer lemon in any recipe that asks for regular lemons, but a recipe made with a Meyer is just a step above. Make that two steps.

(8) Once you try them it’s hard not to get hooked. I don't know many people who have tried [a Meyer lemon] without getting hooked. (10) A sweet finish with
an irresistible flavor One of my most distinctive memories growing up in California was picking Meyer lemons from my grandmother's tree for whatever she was making that day for dinner. Until I started my professional career in the culinary arts, I never understood why she always stressed that the Meyer was the best lemon to use. The Meyer is what one would expect from a regular lemon but with a sweet finish and an irresistible flavor. Now as a chef, I almost always prefer Meyer lemons. — Spencer Cole, Chef
Providence, Rhode Island Meyers are chic.With less acid and more perfume than regular lemons, Meyers have become this season's chic citrus. (5) The Boston Herald A favorite of Martha Stewart Martha Stewart is the fairy godmother of [the Meyer lemon] Cinderella story. . . [The] popularity of Meyer lemons has soared since food and lifestyle maven Stewart began featuring them in recipes, such as her lemon-pine nut tart [and] whole-wheat spaghetti with arugula and pistachios. (3) Listen to “The Meyer Lemon" National Public Radio Incredible demand for them. We are very bullish on Meyer lemons. We've seen incredible demand for them grow in the last four or five years. In restaurants now, you won't see a Eureka lemon tart. But you will see a Meyer lemon tart. (7) — Scott McIntyre, owner McIntyre's Sierra Pacific Farms Largest producer of Meyer lemons in Southern California Citrus Angels. Meyer lemons are the angels of the citrus world. (9) — Donia Bijan, Chef-owner L'Amie Donia Restaurant Palo Alto, California Flavor without the acid. Meyer lemons provide lemon flavor without all the acid. (4) — Chef Amy McCray Eva Restaurant Kirkland, Washington Sweeter, larger and juicier. Many chefs go cuckoo over [Meyer Lemons] because they are sweeter, larger and juicier than some other types.’ (6) No other lemon beats them... No other lemon beats them in cocktails, ice creams and sauces for fish or chicken. And I adore them in simple vinaigrettes. (12) — Cathy Thomas, Food editor The Orange County Register Coveted by citrus lovers. The Meyer lemon is probably the most coveted by citrus lovers. — Janet K. Keeler St. Petersburg Times So beautiful all I could do was admire them. — Donna Tabbert LongLast winter, I returned home from a trip to California with my suitcase stuffed full of Meyer lemons. . . . I couldn't bear to do anything with the gorgeous [Meyer lemon] fruits except admire them for a couple days. The first afternoon I spent arranging them in still lifes. I took pictures of them. I piled them into my old aluminum colander. I set them on the coffee table in the living room so the sunlight fell on them, then I put them in a big milk glass bowl on the kitchen table. If I had any artistic ability, I would have painted them. (11) Author and food writer Minneapolis, Minnesota Hard to beat the taste. Once you've tasted [a Meyer lemon], it's
hard to go back to regular lemons. (2) —
