I'm pulling for the dirty cucumber.

It's concerned about being spiked.

The mighty cucumber makes salad of his opponents.
If you carrot all, you must vote for the mighty, dirty cucumber was the battle cry!
Lettuce choose the cucumber!
And if thou doest not choose the mighty, dirty cucumber, then truly thou artichoke.
The dirty cucumber has gone above and beyond the kale of duty!
No need to beet around the bush, the excellence of the cucumber will turnip when you least expect it.
When he gets in a pickle, the excitement brings me tomatoes.
Olive the dirty cucumber, because he's all that he's mint to be.
I yam berry impressed with the mighty, dirty cucumber.
