I don't know about the taste, but for sure they would dry out your mouth. Ever ate cotton?

Tampons may not be tasty but they're great for nosebleeds!

We call that "cotton mouth" up here!!

A friend who is a doctor told me that for nosebleeds, cut a tampon in half lengthwise and use it to stop the bleeding in the nose. It makes sense if you think about how absorbent a tampon is and what it's actually used for.

I had a friend, now deceased, who was quite successful at racing vintage British motorcycles. One of his competitors filed a complaint that his bike was "leaking oil" (which ALL British motorcycles do), and should be banned from the track. His solution was to ask the wives and girlfriends of his teammates if any happened to have a Tampon in their purse. One did, which he promptly wired into place beneath the offending leak, and proceeded to win the race.

I have NO fucking idea what that has to do with "Lime on the Tongue" but it was too neat of a story to pass up...

You have obviously never had Patron...don't need to mix it in a marguerita, just put it over ice.

Leave a piece of fish in lemon juice for a while and you'll find it out later cooked

Mmmmmmm, ceviche...

The only time that it may cause problems is if you have tiny abrasions that can make the acidic juice come in contact with blood.

As far as making your tongue itch it is because the mouth is suppose to be alkaline when in optimum health(ph 7).

There has been studies showing lemon juice can kill hiv and sperm when it is administered into the vagina.

Here is more info:http://www.aids.net.au/lemons-news-20060524.htm

Acidic environment

Dr Mwethera says preliminary research findings in animals confirm that lemon juice can be effective against HIV infection and pregnancy. He observes that when they administered neat lemon juice into a baboon’s vagina, it "killed the HIV virus" and sperms deposited by the male baboon.

Dr Gichuhi Mwethera, who has patented UniPron, a microbicide.

Dr Mwethera explains that the science behind lemon juice is simple. Lemon juice is very acidic, with a pH level of about 2. The HIV virus and sperms cannot survive within an acidic environment. The optimum pH for survival of HIV virus and sperms is between 7.2 and 7.4. Lemon juice simply makes the vagina too acidic.

As I read more the article states that using lemon juice in concentration of 50% or more can harm the cells in the vagina BUT to me it seems that's because you are using a HIGH CONCENTRATION and not the juice straight from the lemon in a benign dose because from what has been shown all it takes is 3ml of lemon juice to protect the vagina and a lemon may have 50ml of juice.

There is also another gel being made using this theory of keeping the ph of the vagina acidic to prevent std's and pregnancy cal buffergel.

"BufferGel simply reinforces the mild acidity that occurs in the vagina naturally," says developer Richard Cone, professor of biophysics in Hopkins' Krieger School of Arts and Sciences.

"The normal acidity levels in the vagina can readily kill sperm and many of the germs that cause sexually transmitted infections," explains Cone, who is also managing director of ReProtect. "That's why your stomach's contents are acidic. Most germs just don't survive long in acidic environments."

Here's a study done on its effectiveness:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/q..._uids=11176265

Phase 1 trial of the topical microbicide BufferGel: safety results from four international sites.

AIM: To evaluate the safety of BufferGel (ReProtect LLC, Baltimore, MD), a spermicidal microbicide that acidifies semen and maintains the protective acidity of the vagina, in a high-dose tolerance trial. METHODS: HIV/STD negative, sexually abstinent, and sexually active women in India, Thailand, Malawi, and Zimbabwe were asked to insert one applicator ( approximately 5 ml) of BufferGel vaginally twice per day for 14 days. Sexually active women agreed to have sex (while using BufferGel and nonlubricated condoms) at least twice per week. RESULTS: In total, 98 women (30 sexually abstinent and 68 sexually active) were enrolled. Overall compliance with product use was 93%. Epithelial abnormalities detected by pelvic examination or colposcopy were uncommon (8 cases in 271 examinations). Irritation was reported by approximately one quarter of the women (0.58 events per woman-week) but was generally mild and of short duration. The prevalence of bacterial vaginosis (BV) fell significantly, from 30% at enrollment to 6% at one week, and 7% at two weeks of BufferGel use. Thirty-two women acquired microscopically detectable yeast during BufferGel exposure, but only 3 developed symptomatic vaginitis. CONCLUSION: BufferGel appears to be safe and well tolerated by the cervicovaginal epithelium. Its effect on BV and yeasts merits further study.

Lactobacillus bacteria that reside in the vagina has also been shown to aid in killing hiv. You can find these bacteria in a health food store that sell probiotics.

Putting the lemon juice and the bacteria in a gel and making sure it's ph is between 3.8 and 4 will be a GREAT contraceptive because you are recreating the vagina's natural environment but in a barrier in the form of a gel. PEACE.

Mmmm i guess you may cover your penis with this gel, let it dry out, and you'll have some sort of home made condom

uhhh.........maybe you can, but I think I'll stick with my Trojans, thankyouverymuch....
It occurs to me, we get so much mileage out of such a simple topic. Once again, another great reason I love this board so much.

not sure about lime.. but my wife drank an acidic wine and went down on me.. it certainly tingled!! Almost on the verge of hurting..
I might have to try the lime on her
