Cucumbers can taste bitter due to a compound called cucurbitacin, which is more concentrated in the skin and stem of the cucumber. This bitterness can be caused by environmental stress, improper growing conditions, or genetic factors. To reduce bitterness, try peeling the cucumber or soaking it in salt water before eating.
