A new graphic suggests cucumbers SHOULDN'T be stored in the fridge 🤔

People are divided!

OK, so we are aware there's a lot more important things going on in the world right now, but just in case you want to take your mind off some of the news for a few moments, a new graphic which is doing the rounds on social media has suggested that cucumbers SHOULD NOT be stored in the fridge, leaving people across the world completely divided.

Just like the cupboard or fridge debate about chocolate last month, people are now getting irate about where to store cucumbers, with some thinking the fridge, and others thinking at room temperature.

Of course, when you do your weekly shop and come home to unpack it, it's very unlikely you sit and read the storage instructions of every item, and instead just store the product where you've always known, but it turns out this might not always be correct.

A new graphic which was posted on Facebook page 'Feeding a family on £1 per day', shows cucumbers, along with fruit and veg items such as tomatoes, potatoes and peppers, should be stored in a cupboard, not the fridge!

Of course, just like the chocolate debate, the comments went wild, with many people disagreeing with the graphic.

One user wrote, 'I've always kept cucumbers and peppers in the fridge', with another adding, 'EH? Cucumbers belong in the fridge!!!'. (sic)

However, it seems other people were aware of how to store a cucumber, with one user writing, 'Cucumbers have always belonged in the cupboard!'

Well, we have one question... Fridge or cupboard? 🤔

Check out all of the chocolate bars we wish would make a comeback:

1) Cadbury Coconut Boost

The core centre made up of dessicated coconut combined with a normal Boost bar was just too good - why on EARTH was this masterpiece ever taken out of circulation?!

2) Dairy Milk Tiffin

After being off the shelves for years, Tiffin made its comeback in 2016. Hallelujah!

3) Mars Delight

That caramel and chocolate cream filling mixed with that wafer, was a pure delight. Sadly, we despite people's efforts, this Mars chocolate bar won't be returning anytime soon.

4) Cadbury Marble

Milk and white chocolate AND praline in one bar? Yup. Cadbury's really are one of the best at coming up with new recipes.

5) Cadbury Spira

Two fingers of Dairy Milk with chocolate spiralling around the outside... YUM.

6) Time Out

The Time Out was very slyly taken off the shelves - basically a chocolate wafer, but SO MUCH MORE. Thankfully, they still exist in shops as a single wafer.

7) Cadbury Snow Flake

The geniuses at Cadbury decided to merge their white Dream chocolate with the standard flake to create utter perfection in this little bar. But why, oh why, did they stop making them?!

8) Rowntree's Cabana

Coconut, caramel, cherries and chocolate – the ultimate tropical chocolate bar, right?

9) Trio

TRIO! TRIOOOO! I want Trio and I want one now!

10) Cadbury Dream

Possibly one of the best additions to the Heroes tin at Christmas.

11) Cadbury Fuse

Nuts, raisins, fudge and cereal pieces all in one chocolate bar?! It's years since we last saw a Fuse bar around. Sob.

12) Terry's Pyramint

Basically, a pyramid version of an After Eight but with a slightly sloppier middle. We miss these!

13) KitKat Senses

We can't for the life of us think why these went extinct. But they've been refashioned in a selection box, so that's something at least.

14) Milkybar Choo

We're hoping this one will make a comeback. The strange combination of white chocolate and fudge worked surprisingly perfectly.

15) Cadbury Taz Bar

When Taz became extinct, this chocolate bar was revolutionised as a Freddo bar with caramel. But we miss that devil.

16) Twix Top

This was the highlight of our school packed lunches... Anyone else?!

17) Cadbury Snaps

They're like Pringles - but chocolate. And just like our favourite snack, you couldn't ever just have one Snap!

18) Rowntree's Secret

Withdrawn due to low sales volumes, the marshmallow centre wrapped in thick chocolate was a real treat back in the day.

19) Cadbury Wispa Mint

We've all had a Wispa, haven't we? But the mint version had an extra edge to it that was just simply divine. Sigh.

20) Texan

The mighty chew.

21) Flyte

Forget Maltesers, this really was a lighter way to enjoy chocolate.

21) White maltesers

Despite fans clamouring for the return of the white chocolate delights, Mars say they have no intention of bringing them back. Sob!

23) Galaxy Truffle

The fan favourite was inexplicably removed and replaced by Twix in Celebrations tubs back in 2011. It's clear that some people are not over it as a petition was made in 2018 to bring the chocolate back.
A spokesperson said: "We're always interested in hearing our fans' views on the products they love, but we don't have any current plans to bring back Galaxy Truffles."
Get in the bin.
