If you are served a wedge of lemon to flavor tea, iced tea, fish, or other foods, you may want to squeeze the lemon in the drink or on the food.
Gently squeeze the juice of the lemon on the desired food while shielding it with your other hand to prevent it from squirting elsewhere. You may then drop the lemon wedge in your cup or glass if you are flavoring a beverage or place it on the edge of your plate. It is preferable to place it on your bread plate if you have one at your place setting.
