How many of you sqeeze lemon on your seafood?

What is the purpose of doing this anyway?

That's really sad.  I would have been the same way because my parents didn't have a clue how to cook seafood.  Furtunately, I grew up in New Orleans so when I finally got to try seafood away from home it was the best!

I don't know the purpose but I've always done it.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I do it.  The purpose is to allow the citrus to brighten the flavor of the fish. 

I like lemon on fried fish.  I do see a lot of folks doing that. 

mmmmmm.  Fried catfish, lemon, and tartar sauce.

I don't do it religiously, but any tart substance like lemon or vinegar also helps eliminate any "fishy" taste for me.

If it's super-fresh, I don't worry about it.  But on occasion I like to get my fish grilled with lime pepper.

We're probably talking a bit out of your league.  We are talking about seafood that doesn't come out of a can with a mermaid on the label.

Squeezed lemon on fish fried or baked gives it a zesty taste. If I don't have lemon, no big deal. I might use ketchup on fried catfish. Don't use lemon on any other type of seafood.
