I'm sure it originated in a land where the people had access to fish and lemons! Lemon cuts the fishy taste and neutralizes odor and it has a complimentary flavor. Where it originated is anyone's guess. Maybe The Middle East. Egypt? It isn't really what you would call a custom, it is an ingredient that works well with fish. Like salt works well with beef, it's probably worldwide.
