Default Orange rind vs. orange extract?

You must have some extremely non-tart lemons. the usual ratio of
sugar to lemon juice is about 3:1. I can't imagine eating/drinking a
non-sugar lemon anything.

I can only picture that ancient episode of the Little Rascals, where
some kid is trying to play a trumpet while another kid in the audience
totally distracts him by gnawing on a raw lemon half.
