I was given a large bag of "veggies" from FIL with the words, "there are a bunch of zucchini and cucumbers in there for you guys." Well, I can't tell which is a cucumber and which is a zucchini!!! Any ideas?

Hmmm...well zucchini sometimes have small white spots on them, and can be kinda bumpy or have ridges. Cucumbers can be bumpy too though. LOL!

Take a picture!

Usually cucumbers are more moist (is that the word I'm looking for) in the center.

Here is a picture... it is probably going to be huge as I can't seem to attach a thumbnail picture... I am so "challenged".

Those two top ones and the second one from the left are zucks. The others are cucumbers.

Looking at that picture they are hard to tell.

Looking again, that 2nd one from the left is a cucumber as well. White spots / bumps are cucumbers.
