Re: I'm looked upon as a freak...
While going to University, I worked in a restaurant kitchen and one of the chefs there told me that he, erm, used a cucumber on one of the waitresses during a drunken lock in...and then sliced it up and used it in a salad the next day! I almost vomited on the spot! I really just couldn't believe that someone would do that!
At least you can peel the cucumber.............

No, it's yummy. My parents brought me peanut butter when I was living in Europe - I used to put it on baguettes. Maybe it's like marmite - something one has to grow up on.
