    No idea cucumbers could do this much. I only thought they had a lot of water and tasted delicious ;D

    A. I like cucumbers (Souther vinegar salt pepper ice melting on top while other dishes are prepped)
    B. They do contain all the good stuff OP mentioned, but less than 1% of most

    Broccoli, Bell Pepper, now they are packed with nutrients.

    Huh...look at that!
    Can anyone confirm that ALL of those are true? I need facts, studies and reports to prove these things...This is a serious weight loss forum after all!

    I had absolutely no idea that cucumbers did all that!!! I absolutely love them plain or with vinegar (a southern thing).
    We do that here too, sliced, vinegar and a few sprinkles of salt and pepper :) (always thought french canadian thing)
    i think id rather eat the cucumber than rub anything else with it. :tongue:

    I am originally from Maine and we did it also... Father's side of the family was French Canadian. It just so happens I now live in the south... so I am covered for both North and South! :)

    While I love my cucumbers, I'm HIGHLY suspicious of most of the facts stated here. I looked up the nutrition info, and while it is a good source of vitamin K, it isn't a good source of most of the other vitamins listed (it only has 2% of our daily vitamin B1 in a cup of cucumber, for example). http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=nutrientprofile&dbid=62

    Also, anything that starts off saying "Looking for a fast and easy way to remove cellulite " is 99.9% non-credible, in most cases.

    Would be interested in seeing an actual source for all this info. I tried looking this up on Snopes but it is listed as "research in progress".

    What's the difference between horny and hungry?

    It's where you put the cucumber!

    Plus they contain dihydrogen monoxide, which can also be found in Oil, Anti-Freeze, and gasoline!

    I visited the market today and I was shocked if not taken aback at how big they where, compared to the supermarket! :p
