Feeling a little down from your exercises or in general? Buy some cucumbers and eat them up as a low calorie snack. Season them with a little something (Ranch, or some other dressing) if you can fit it into your diet plan. If you agree give me a hell yeah!

    One kind of food that's good with everything! I like to dip whole cucumbers in laughing cow cheese. Amazingly filling low-cal snack!

    Really?

    I love cucumber but can't say I've found it especially energising. There's only about 8 calories in your average portion. Barely enough to run down the drive!

    Hell yeah!! I had wonderful organic cucumbers growing in my garden. Tasted so good. Then the deer came and ate them all. I need a taller fence.

    Yum~ I eat it almost every day in a salad or with homemade hummus. It's also loaded with calcium !

    Sprinkle a little Light Zesty Italian over the top of sliced cucumbers and it's a nice substitute when you're sick of salad.

    And I bet the deer walked away going 'Hell Yeah' lol

    As for me - I must test this. So many varieties of cucumbers. My wife buys Lebanese, but I go for any that dont make me spend the next few hours burping
