Never saw dark green dots around the perimeter of a cut cucumber


Are these dots normal – never noticed this.
Prompted me to do a quick google search for cut cucumbers but didn’t see anything.

It’s organic 😊

    Normal, I’ve seen that before.

    Vestigial thorns. As cucumbers ripen their thorns are absorbed back into the flesh. Safe to eat.

    I always see these on my homegrown cukes! They tend to have bigger thorns than the store ones (harsh climate, need hardier ones).

    It’s the 5G turning the cucumbers gay. J/k. It’s normal. Common in my garden cucumbers.
