About this product

Commonly thought of as a vegetable, the cucumber is actually a fruit! Sliced or grated they add a crisp fresh taste to salads and sandwiches. Best eaten unpeeled. There’s nothing quite as cool as a cucumber!

Wash before eating.

* Like us, not all fruit or vegetables are perfectly formed. We don’t believe in discriminating against misshapen carrots or imperfect potatoes and in fact, love them for their flaws. A less than round apple is still as tasty as their perfectly formed cousins. Unless your produce is clearly defective, please accept them as Nature intended.

Storage info: Best kept in the fridge where it can remain for 1-2 weeks.

Health benefits: Low in calories but high in many vitamins and minerals. Cucumbers contain a good amount of water and soluble fiber, making them ideal for promoting hydration and aiding in weight loss. They are good sources of phytonutrients which have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer benefits. Cucumbers should be eaten unpeeled to maximise their nutritional content. Peeling them reduces the amount of fiber, as well as certain vitamins and minerals. Any health content is provided for general information only, and should not be treated as a substitute for the medical advice of your own doctor or any other healthcare professional.
