Jif Lemon Juice

Since it's pancake day today I am going to write about the perfect pancake accompaniment - Jif lemon! Now I always put lemon and sugar on my pancakes - I can't be doing with all this maple syrup nonsense- and I suppose ideally I would use fresh lemon, but I always keep bottled lemon juice in the house, so there's no need to go and buy extra.

From the iconic green bottle or the even more iconic plastic lemon bottle to the adverts advising us to "not forget the pancakes on Jif Lemon Day" it's a brand I am sure most of us are aware of! I always used to go for the 55ml plastic lemon bottles as I found them kitsch and a bit fun but I noticed that sometimes the lids (quite flimsy flip lids) didn't provide an airtight seal and as a result the contents didn't last so well even to the point of mould!
