if you break a false nail right down to the skin, so much so that it actually splits the skin, do NOT, and this is important, do NOT eat satsumas.

What about lemons?

[emmelinemay.livejournal.com]

to be perfectly honest, i don't make a habit of eating lemons. But yes, to lemone-fanciers, that is also good advice.

..antiseptic action is useful though

[emmelinemay.livejournal.com]

satsumas are antiseptic?? with all that vitamic c, they truly are a wonder-fruit...

[jonnytuna.livejournal.com]

yes, in fact it's the citrc acic that's antseptic. Good for cuts, but very painful.

Also never bite a lime.!!!

[gaius-octavian.livejournal.com]

The only sensible way to eat a lime is to leave it floating in your gin & tonic!
