Juice a lemon, 5 ways ranked worst to best

For every method: roll your lemon first to break up the inside for optimal juice release. Then, ranked from worst to best: 5. Stick a satay stick into the lemon and squeeze it above a glass. Great if you only need a few drops, but definitely not the most juice. 4. Use kitchen tongs to squeeze the lemon for more grip. Not really effective, in my opinion. 3. Use a fork or a manual juicer. More juice this time, but all the pits fell in as well. 2. Squeeze with your hands and use the other hand as a cup for the pits. Fast, and it needs no equipment. 1. The manual lemon press. No pits, the most juice, easy to clean, worth buying this one.
