Key Limes are just about ping-pong ball size (well a tad larger). On the
whole a lime produces less juice than a lemon, but Key limes produce the
least amount of juice even less than their smaller size would indicate
(at least to my way of looking at it). Perhaps googling for images of
both types persian and key limes would help ...no not bowling for
dollars.
