I was wondering why limes are so hard to find here in Argentina. We consumed quite a few of them (along with cachaca, soda, and sugar) in Brazil, but did not see any limes at all in Palermo or Mendoza where we are now. A google of the wisdom of the internet suggests there is no actual Spanish word for limes, other than "Limas" which is really a transliteration of the English.
The really important thing is that we now have a large planter chock full of fresh mint begging to be used in Mojitos, but no way to get the limes. I guess we could try lemons, but they are not really very similar.
