Trivia[]
- This is the third time where a heatwave hits Lakeside City, with the second instance being There's So Much to Sea, and the first being Keep Cool.
- Although this episode premiered in 2004, it was produced in 2003 according to the copyright date at the end of the credits.
- There was a rumor that in the original airing, there was blood in the scene where Eric hit his hand with the knife, causing it to pop like a balloon. However, this was later proven to be false by one of the storyboard artists.
- This episode premiered in Latin America on January 16, 2004, which was four months before it did in the United States.
- The title is a reference to a scene in the episode where the brothers are constructing the stand, and Eric misspells "Lemonade", which causes the lemonade stand's name to be "Lemon-aid" as a result.
- According to one of the episode's writers in the audio commentary, the first draft for this episode was written during Season 2's production cycle, but he and the rest of the crew "didn't really think much of it". Obviously, this changed once the show was revived after the movie finished production.
- One of the drafts (from after the show's revival) were originally supposed to be about Edward and Eric selling World's Lamest Chocolate bars (a parody of World's Finest Chocolate) for a school fundraiser, until Warner Bros. gave them a "rather blunt" note: "SpongeBob already did that."
- This is somewhat ironic, considering E&E was pitched to Nickelodeon in 1997, but was rejected in favor of SpongeBob.

- This episode is available to watch on the Coulrophobia DVD, the Stories to Share VHS and DVD, and the Season 5 Volume 2 box set.
- According to early listings, it was originally going to be on The Search for the Six DVD as opposed to the former, but it ended up swapping places with the Season 4 episode, Will You Be My Friend?.
