I had half a lemon leftover from some homemade sherbert I made with my roommates last week and I tried the microwave cleaning tip this weekend. It worked great and now our microwave no longer smells like popcorn! Not to mention it was easy and our whole apartment smelled like fresh lemons. After using the lemon-infused water to clean the microwave, I rubbed the bottom of our kitchen sink with the lemon and then let the garbage disposal have the rest which made our sink smell fresh and clean too. I definitely recommend!
