- A
hack for getting the juice out of alemon without cutting it up is being shared onTikTok . - All you have to do is insert a skewer into the end of the fruit and you can then squeeze out the juice, as various videos show.
- The juice comes out without any seeds, too.
- Many people who have tried the trick have expressed their amazement.
- However, according to Johanna Westbrook, it doesn't work with limes and oranges.
Whether for a zesty chicken dish, a tangy meringue pie, or a sour cocktail, a squeeze of lemon juice is a staple in many recipes.
But the issue is, each time you slice into a lemon, you're invariably left with a sticky mess and a lot of juice actually wasted.
According to a hack doing the rounds on TikTok, however, this doesn't have to be the case.
Numerous people including clinical nutritionist Jacqui Bain have been sharing videos showing the ingenious trick that allows you to squeeze the juice from a lemon, and all it requires is a skewer.
You use the skewer to pierce a hole in one end of the lemon, and you can squeeze the juice right out.

Westbrook said the coolest thing about the hack is that the juice you're left with is free from seeds, too.
"This is so awesome! Go try it," she added.
Westbrook went on to try the hack with an orange and a lime, neither of which worked particularly well.
