Thought I'd share this interesting little factoid courtesy of Darcy O'Neil over at The Art of Drink:

1. A lemon has about 1.4 grams of citric acid per ounce of juice. A lemon also contains 10mg ascorbic acid (Vitamin C)and 0.8 grams of sugar per oz.

2. Mexican or Key limes have 2.4 grams of citric acid per ounce and about 0.2 grams of sugar per ounce of juice.

Well, I thought it was interesting anyway... :)
