Lol, Christina. I see your reasoning.

Ever had raisin bread, Christina? Sometimes butter is used on that
and then it's toasted.

Do you believe in the "lemon thing", Christina? Much more current data
is available on that as a help to reduction of acidic ash.

You're a funny lady!

Take care.

Ha ! I get the raisin toast idea.

But were you saying just like pile some raisins on a glob of butter??????? That is what has me stumped

I have given the lemon water a long drawn out trial .. It hasn't helped me at all , But maybe its just me and the food I allow myself to eat.
