When is a lemon not a lemon?

Just like all the males in our family have inherited their ancestors’ hair, or lack of it, by the time they turn 25, Meyer “not lemons” seem to have inherited more from mandarins than their other progenitors. Meyers have thin skins, lots of seeds, and while they do have a lemonish scent from their pomelo and grapefruit genes, they are decidedly mandarin sweet, as I discovered last night when I tried them in one of my lemon chicken risoni, except in this case it was “lemon juvenile rooster”.
