I guess I'm pedantic. I just want people to eat healthy. Eat five
different colors a day- a yellow vegetable, a green vegetable, a red
fruit, etc. Or as someone mentioned, you can eat 5 different colored
M&M's.

It's just when cu***bers have been pickled, they probably don't
contain much nutrient, unless they are the uncooked pickles. I found
some really great Kosher pickles here, and kept the juice, and then
sliced some cu***bers in a coupke weeks ago, yum.
