Cuke Tales
Cucumbers are believed to have originated in India. No one is quite sure though. Only tame fruit have been discovered, never a wild one.
Wherever it went, Cucumis sativus quickly became popular. “We remember the fish that we did eat in Egypt freely, the cucumbers, and the melons,” moaned the Israelites to Moses as they trekked for decades across the wilderness to reach the promised land.
