Cucumbers are a pretty wasteful vegetable. They require a lot of water to grow and aren't very nutritious. Since Mars has to be very efficient with their agricultural output, cucumbers would be a rare treat.

That moment when Bobbie recovers from the initial "FOOD!" thought and offers Ghazi something too, only to be artfully and fortunately dodged by him and THEN beginning the real munch and taking the whole tray.

Cucumbers are a pretty wasteful vegetable.

I told people that for a time, and I stopped buying them, but I missed their freshness.

Toast with cheese tastes boring? Add cucumber slices.

Still, I would adapt if they went out of business.
