Cucumber

Country of Origin: Holland       Weight: each


Facts:
Often people think of cucumbers as a fruit because it contains seeds to reproduce, but it is typically grouped with salad/vegetables due to their uses.  Cucumbers contain sterols, which have been linked to lowering cholesterol in animals. Most sterols are found in the skin of the cucumber, so don’t peel it!  They also contain only a few calories, so they are a dream item if you are dieting!  Cucumbers are also very good in aiding digestion and have an excellent cleansing effect on the bowel.
