SACRAMENTO, CA - The world has seen many epic rivalries across history: the Red Sox Vs the Yankees, Jedis Vs Sith, Freddy Vs Jason, and so on. But now, thanks to the beautiful creation of internet YouTube videos, I offer you perhaps the biggest face-off of all time—Cats Vs Cucumbers.

As a well-known cat enthusiast, I have some qualms with purposefully scaring cats, but as a produce journalist I take it as my duty to investigate such big unasnwered questions within our industry. Just exactly why cats have a vendetta against the long, green gourd is still a mystery. Is it some primordial cat instinct? Is it a shape issue? Are other vegetables also included in this feline feud? 

Either way, it makes for an amazing video experience, and perhaps viewing this video several hundred times with all your coworkers will give some insights into the enigma…

Check out the video compilation above for some scientific produce research, or maybe just some Monday morning laughs.
