Have You Heard of the Poke-and-Squeeze Lemon Toothpick Hack?

MAN SAYS YOU'VE BEEN GETTING JUICE OUT OF LEMONS WRONG THIS WHOLE TIME

In his video, TikTok user Gerson Repreza (@gersonrepreza) stands in front of his stovetop in his kitchen, holding a lemon. Repreza appears to be cooking a dish that calls for lemon juice.

He continues, “So, I was today years old when I found out about this,” he says. “To get some juice out of a lemon, you just need a toothpick. Just put it in there, in the butt. You don’t need to cut it open.”

He demonstrates by poking the lemon at one of its ends, which he refers to as the “butt.” Repreza then rolls the lemon in his hands before squeezing it into the pan on his stovetop.

Viewers were just as shocked as Repreza, they shared in the comments section. “Those lemon juice bottles were trying to tell us the whole time,” one viewer wrote. “Did you…. Did you just milk a lemon??” a second asked.
