Earlier this year a video appeared online purportedly showing how you could turn a lemon into a simple battery and then use it to start a fire by igniting a piece of steel wool. Uh no, that’s where the science falls apart.
So don’t bother packing a lemon as part of your emergency supplies for the next time the power goes out. Just toss a box of matches in there and save yourself a lot of trouble.
