I have been told that lemons at the grocery store are covered in wax and that you have to remove this wax before you can create lemon zest, is this true? (lemmit.online)

So I've read somewhere or heard somewhere that the lemons you buy at the grocery store are covered in a wax and you have to boil the lemon to get rid of this wax before you can create lemon zest, is there any truth to this?

Are you saying I can't just go buy a lemon at WinCo and scrape off the skin and create lemon zest? Apparently there's some kind of wax that I have to remove first or something?
