While this would have been better recieved than 'you will not find' or 'this cannot be', I think
the crux of the matter is simple.  It is not a matter of 'we can't document lemons in Middle
England'..it's a matter of 'we haven't'.  I think it's possible, and I'm trying to find out. 
That's about it.  There seems to be a lot of opposition, which I find.... peculiar.  I'm not
trying to destroy the foundations of SCA cooking.  I;m trying to find out if lemons were available
in Middle English Enlgand.
