The Return of the Cucumber

Peter Rukavina

Cucumbers were really the only food that Catherine truly abhorred. As a result, I lived in a cucumber-free household for 28 years; it was as if cucumbers went extinct in 1992.

This week, as part of my weekly online Charlottetown Farmers’ Market order, I added an Atlantic Grown Organics cucumber, and I’ve built cucumber into our last two suppers. Wow. Fantastic.

All hail the cucumber, back from extinction.

What Andrew said. Also, there's a Mexican seasoning called Tajin that levels up the cucumber snack. We can get it at grocery stores but it's also sold at the Charlottetown Farmers' Market at the Mexican food stand.
