    I'm really curious why people are jumping all over this recipe for. Some of the comments here are just really rude and mean. She is just sharing a recipe. You like it or you don't. But there is no need to ridicule it.

    To the op. I want to say, I read you profile and felt just so inspired by your attitude towards what life has dealt you and your incredibly positive attitude. :happy: :heart:

    I don't remember seeing anything vicious when I read through this thread earlier today. I vaguely recall reading some stuff that made me laugh though.

    Maybe I just forgot the venomous vitriol. I guess I could put on my super-sensitive glasses and read through it again to try to see what you're seeing...but nah.

    Really??? So many people are making fun of the recipe. She feels it. Read her posts. What is the point in making fun of it.

    Geesh, now I feel bad...it looks like I was the meanest of them all back on page two where I commented on an entire post without any periods...which was funny *to me* because I'm the guy who overuses ellipses.

    I certainly meant no ill will...

    ...but I still believe the problem here is more of over-sensitivity than it is in viciousness.

    ETA: Here's a flower: :flowerforyou:

    I am not targeting you specifically. And it is not about sensitivity. There is just no point in making fun of a recipe...no point at all. Perhaps making suggestions. But not making fun of it. I looked at your profile just to see your age. I'm 38 so I know we both grew up in the age before Internet and social media. Maybe I am old school - if you wouldn't say something to my face then don't say it on a forum. And when I say you, I don't mean you, I mean people in general.
  • genius! I am defiantly doing this. Thank you. :smile:

    I think you need to lighten up ..

    Yes, some of us, myself included, had some fun with it...

    I prefer cucumbers with some oil and vinegar ...and honestly the one picture just did not look so good to me..but no one was mean ..geez ...

    Okay not posting any of my ideas/tips anymore. Somehow, someone, always makes me feel like crap for "never using periods" or "being afraid of carbs" just trying to share my thoughts.

    Grow a thicker hide bro. Try playing the Jungle and see what happens.

    I guess that's my perception.

    And hopefully I will lighten up. Weight wise...

    I'm not sure what you mean by "jumping all over" the recipe. If you read rudeness and/or mean-ness into those posts, that's all on you. There was some ribbing, but I doubt any of it was meant maliciously.

    There is no need to be upset.

    Looks yummy. would be great to bring to a party.

    ignore the stupid comments. Every thread that suggests a substitution for bread/wheat/flour gets mocked to some degree.

    Thanks OP.

    How am I supposed to slather mayo, ranch dressing, or buffalo sauce all over cucumber?

    Hollow it out/remove the seeds. Fill w/ appropriate condiments. Eat.


    You're welcome.
  • :o that looks delicious...thanks for the tip <3

    Cute. I'd try it.
  • looks good except for the cucumber "skin" I will peel it off.

    Those are actually good, I still haven't found a way to avoid the filling to totally slip from the cucumber surface though... so it ends up horribly messy.
