All fruit...ALL, organic or otherwise has to be washed with soap and rinsed well before use, especially if using the skin/rind/peel, etc. There is always some form of pesticide or contaminant on anything bought in a store, regardless of what is said by the FDA, etc. on classification of “Organic“.
When I made it from the American Frontline Doctor‘s recipe a couple of weeks ago, it didn‘t taste bad. Quite nice, actually. However, I don‘t shy away from bitter tastes, as the bitter foods are EXCELLENT for digestion. It tasted a bit like marmalade I make, but without the sugar and orange, and my marmalade is fantastic. It tastes a hell of a lot better than Buckley‘s! If it works, then why quibble over a second or two of unpleasant taste? Better than taking a death shot. Smell and taste always disappear and/or diminish when nasal passages are clogged, so maybe that helps those that really dislike the bitter taste.

Just my opinion.
