Concerning the tartness of Meyer lemons, my experience has been that the
tartness decreases as the fruit stays on the tree. If the fruit is picked
before the orange color develops, then it is more tart but less
aromatic.
I personally think that Meyer lemons are great and prefer them to the other
types of lemons. The flavor, however, is different from that of the typical
lemon.
