Origin
Limes are believed to have originated in Southeast Asia, specifically in the region encompassing India, Myanmar, and Malaysia. They were later introduced to other parts of the world by traders and explorers. Limes are now grown in various tropical and subtropical regions, including Mexico, India, Brazil, Egypt, and the United States (particularly Florida and California). They are widely used in cuisines around the world for their tangy and refreshing flavor.
