As the name suggests, Citric Acid is found in citrus fruits like lemons and limes, where it acts as a natural preservative. It's very useful in preserving Vitamin C content and preventing discoloration and spoilage from bacterial growth in home uses, too: whether in canning, drying, freezing, or sprouting. Also called sour salt, citric acid is sometimes used to add tartness and acidity to some recipes.
