      That would be a nightmare to actually eat, the skin is fully intact.

      Now, slice the cucumber normally and make little finger sandwiches with it, and that’s actually pretty appealing.

      It would be way too much cucumber for me, but this is right up some people’s alley. My husband will eat an entire cucumber whereas I can only enjoy a few slices at a time.

      I have celiac, and I’ll sometimes use iceberg lettuce leaves as sandwich material. I prefer that because it’s got a much milder flavor.

        For me cucumber is just edible water, i can eat them instead of drinking, hydrohomies also like these water crunchies

          I must detect a flavor that others don’t because there’s a pretty strong flavor for me that can’t be ignored.

          They sometimes make me burp, too. Maybe it’s one of those genetic things because my dad has the same experience.

          Don’t get me wrong – I really like cucumbers, especially ones fresh from the garden, but I’d never eat a big chunk in one sitting, unless it were a pickle.

            That definitely is a thing! If you buy English/hothouse cucumbers instead of standard American cucumbers, they are less prone to causing this!

        I don’t think I could eat the whole thing like it’s pictured, but imagine cutting it into like sushi sized pieces. I would 100% eat a few.

        But I’m incredibly lazy so in reality I just shove the various ingredients in my face hole.
