A hand squeezes a cut lime, releasing juice. Overlaying text introduces "El Limón" as a colonial fruit that built a hemisphere's kitchen, survived a cartel, and shaped culinary traditions after arriving on a colonial ship.

Text on a faded background of an old sailing ship explains that Arab traders carried the Key lime to Spain, then colonizers brought it to the Americas in the 16th century, with Columbus introducing citrus in 1493.

A pile of whole and cut limes illustrates the contrast between the Key lime, which built Latin American cuisine, and the Persian lime, optimized for shipping logistics, with the milder version gaining more attention.
