Yeah, and props for the Orange!

Which of THESE fruits If is found in ALL citrus fruits Lemons, Limes, Grapefruits, Tangerines, Clementines, ALL OF THEM

List of Foods That Contain Citric Acid In Their Natural State Citrus fruits: all of 'em. It's strongest in lemons and limes, which are up to 8% citric acid by weight and can even be used to extract the chemical from; sour oranges can also be used, so we assume that the more sour the fruit the higher the citric acid content. Berries and soft fruit: Almost all berries with the possible exception of blueberries. Certainly found in: strawberry, raspberry, gooseberry, cranberry, redcurrant, blackcurrant. Redcurrants are one of the worst offenders - redcurrant juice can be used to replace lemon juice in jam recipes! Exotic fruits: Pineapple, tamarind Stone fruits: Cherries (apparently only a small amount) Vegetables: Tomatoes, cayenne peppers (not the same as sweet peppers), Jerusalem artichoke, lettuce (!) Wine - as a by-product of fermentation, and to improve clarity Cheese - Citric acid is used in the manufacturing process to help clot the milk faster. It may be an integral part of making certain cheeses, especially mass-produced mozzarella, but appears to be a by-product of industrialisation for most British cheeses: the traditional method of adding bacterial culture to the milk and allowing it to act slowly does not use added citric acid as far as I know. I don't, however, know whether citric acid also appears naturally in cheese as a by-product of the bacterial reactions. Conclusion: traditional (read: expensive) cheeses are likely to be safer, but the jury's out overall. Sourdough breads eg. rye bread - as a by-product of fermentation..

It’s also in cherries.

I love lemon in most things except my tea.

Could have included some of its uses...a little bit about the citric acid cycle would have been educational.

Char, I am not a clone. Did you mean to say, " You are right? "
