mexicanfoodporn: People seem to be having a little bit of a problem identifying fruit.  Limes are the green ones and Lemons and the yellow ones.  The curious thing is that in Mexico Lima actually means Lemon. (Yellow)  Limón actually means lime. (Green)  I really dont know what causes this “cross” in definitions and the way they are written, it would make sense to have lemons called Limones and Limas called limes but for those who have been to Mexico or are familiar with mexican cuisine, we tend to use limes (limones) for almost everything. Lemons (Limas) are used just sometimes.
