They are not alone-the US food dealer Freshdirect reported a remarkable increase in demand for cucumbers. And now the drama comes: Supermarkets also complain about empty shelves in Iceland! The local news reports that cucumbers in most shops are in short supply and even have to be imported from the Netherlands in order to maintain the supply. Has it really just happened, or do the viral cucumber letters play a role?

a Tikok hero and its cucumber creations

The language -powerful recipes come from the Canadian Tikke Logan Moffitt, which causes a sensation under the user name @logagm. He inspires millions with his extraordinary cucumber salad variations that encourage them to cook. And the result? Niger to cucumbers that can no longer keep up!

Among the most popular variations are the "sushi cucumber salad with smoked salmon", the "laughs-Bagel cucumber salad with cream cheese" and the slightly sharp "creamy kimchi cucumber salad". A real eye-catcher is the "sushi cucumber salad", which spoils the senses through fresh smoked salmon, soy sauce and Wasabi. Simply delicious!
