[quote:Cooler than Me 71137126:MV81MTg0OTY1XzdDMzU2ODUw] Because water bro! https://culinarylore.com/food-history:are-cucumbers-really-cold/ "If you were to pick up a room temperature cucumber and insert a temperature probe into it, you’d find it to be somewhat cooler than the temperature of the room. You may even find it to be 10 to 20 degrees cooler on the inside. So, cucumbers are cool, relative to their surroundings. It has been suggested that the origin of idiom ‘cool as a cucumber’ is owed to this fact." [youtube]https://youtube.com/watch?v=mqWq_48LxWQ[/youtube] [/quote]
