Cucumbers

So, what are the health benefits of cucumbers? The flesh of the cucumber is high in vitamin C and caffeic acid, which alleviates skin irritations and reduces swelling. The skin, on the other hand, is rich in fiber, potassium, and magnesium, which have been shown to help reduce blood pressure. In addition to the minerals listed above, cucumbers are also "very good" sources of molybdenum, and "good" sources of vitamin A, manganese, folate, and tryptophan. And, because cucumbers are mostly water, eating them leaves you feeling full.

So, what's up with the picture of cucumber Pepsi? That is for real. Apparently, in the summer of 2007, Pepsi released this product for a limited time in Japan. Wow.
