@glitternoodle a friend of one of my exes once told me that etrogim are actually pretty disgusting???? or is this another one of those "so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should" kinda halakhas

@wolfgang apparently kids in Babylonia used to really like them? it's possible the fruit itself has changed over the past 1500 years, or maybe they just had different palettes? a lot of what "tastes good" comes down to what's culturally available idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
