Are cucumbers a good source of fiber?

Cucumbers have fiber!

A single 8-inch cucumber (weighing 10 ounces) provides 12% of the minimum amount of fiber experts recommend for daily consumption.

Cucumbers are good fresh in salads or freshly marinated in a vinegar/salt solution. Pickling extras from your garden isn't difficult and takes the cucumber goodness into the long winter season for you.
