An unwitting lemon became internet famous when it’s trek down a hill was recorded and posted by a local San Diego photographer.
Seriously.
Mark Sakasegawa was on his way home from a run when he saw a lemon rolling down the hill. The lemon struck a cord with Sakasegawa, and he ended up following the lemon to see where it was going. With over 354K likes, apparently, this is what the people want to see on their Twitter feeds.
Today as I was walking home after my run I saw a large lemon rolling down the hill. It kept rolling for about a quarter mile. And now you can see it, too. pic.twitter.com/dQoHi4RrXS

After it’s journey, Sakasegawa posted the story, and went home. Then, guilt struck.
I felt bad about leaving the large lemon in the gutter so I went back, retrieved it, took it home, and washed it off. pic.twitter.com/iqWxuQuCiL

The lemon has a new home! The lemon now lives in Sakasegawa’s tree in his backyard. People are loving the story.
Is it odd that I am strangely comforted by the fact that you went back and rescued the lemon?

BLESS U. You’re actions today made a bunch of people feel like were part of something bigger. Not just a solo journey, but one taken with many comrades we can’t see, but know they’re there🤗🇺🇸❤️ 🇺🇸🤗

Well, this is what the people want, apparently. Next time you’re out and about, try and see the beauty in the little things like this guy did with this lemon.
