Limon 7: Salt and Lemon Powder, Vero's Rellenitos Fresa, Vero's PicaFresca

Whilst going for a bike ride with cwncool, we stopped at a local 99 cent store which sold various types of Mexican candy. The three we picked up were: (I'm sorry, I don't have pictures of the products, they were eaten on the bike ride :P. I have pictures of the wrappers though.)
Limon 7: Salt and Lemon Powder
from Rhyok:
Apparently, a lot of people LOVE this powder mix. I find wrappers from it regularly around town. Here's a picture of the wrapper:

Appearance: Salt crystals. That's it.
Taste: Tastes like salt with a little lemon squeezed over it. Usually, I get more salt than lemon and I am not a huge fan of salt by itself so I didn't think it tasted that good.
Rating:
By itself: Crap. It's like buying a packet of salt and squeezing a lemon on it. Even though I got it fairly cheap (30 cents), it was definitely not worth the price.
With other foods: Might be good. I have a feeling that his is more of a seasoning than it is a snack. It would probably fit right in on the edge of a margarita glass or with some sort of alcoholic drink.
Should I buy it?: No. Get a lemon, spread some salt on the table, squeeze lemon. You just got Limon 7 powder without having to purchase much.
