Lemon pickle cannot be stored in aluminum utensils because lemon pickle contains acids, which can react with aluminium (metal) liberating hydrogen gas. This can lead to the spoiling of the pickle.

As lemon pickle is an acid and aluminum is a metal and metals react with acids to produce hydrogen gas.

So, it is not advisable to store lemon pickle in an aluminum utensil because it will spoil the pickle and holes will be formed in the vessel.

Lemon pickle is acidic in nature. Aluminium metal is highly reactive in nature. If the pickle is stored in an aluminium container, the acid present in pickle will react with aluminium and the pickle will be spoiled.

Hence, we cannot store lemon pickle in aluminium container.
