See the Discussion for "Can you stand the smell of Courtney's feet?"

The main thing to remember with lemon extract, as with all extracts, is that you are dealing with a concentrate, hence use of the word extract. If a recipe calls for lemon juice, buy a lemon, if it calls for lemon flavoring or extract, buy a bottle. You can also NOT substitute lime juice or extract for lemon, lime is a much stronger flavor.

Lemon extract does not contain acid. If the recipe you are using extract in has something that would react to acid it is not recommended you use juice as a substitute.
