Nonetheless, he made some good money I am sure. I was in San Diego last week and no matter what brand of Mexican beer I ordered thay all came with a lime. Personally I do not like it.

I too have heard that the lime is to stop flies entering the bottle.. It does taste good with carona tho.. I am partial to a corona during the day, nice light taste in the heat..
