Last week I had a friend tell me she hated cucumbers. Effing *cucumbers*! - con_carne Jul 23, 12:57 41
- Once again, for me it's a texture thing. The "rind" part isn't awful, but the seed part is vile. Pickle them and they're grand. -- nm - TWuG Jul 23, 13:21 5
  - you aren't eating fresh cukes, the center should be pretty crisp. (i hate soggy cukes) -- nm - Andie Jul 23, 13:25 4

      - it only takes a few seconds to scoop out the seeds with a spoon -- nm - 'lia Jul 23, 13:31

    - i also make a thai cucumber salad: it's basically this one, but i riff on it a bit depending what i have - Andie Jul 23, 13:09 10
      - that's one of my fave thai restaurant items. if I'm feeling splurgy, I get a little bowl of peanut sauce and dab some on, too. so good. -- nm - b. Jul 23, 13:23 1

    - Yes, Celery is evil, raw or cooked or pickled or whatever. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 13:01 5
      - you can't do cajun food without celery. it's unpossible! -- nm - 'lia Jul 23, 13:30
      - it's good with peanut butter or pimento cheese. -- nm - sycor Jul 23, 13:02 3
        
        No. It's not. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 13:05 2
        
        JaxSean: The Spawn of celery -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 13:06 1
