Funny ... I was just wondering the same thing? I've had one in the fridge for about two weeks as well - just nibbling once in a while and DH is not a fan of lemon, so it's all mine! As I understand it, the acid in the lemon is a very good preservative, so it should keep safely for quite awhile, especially in covered container (think pickles - well, not that long, but you get the idea!). |
