The TikTok user @TheFoodEnthusiast, who originally encountered the scene while shopping, shared the video with a warning for followers.
She wrote that she had gone to buy cucumbers and spotted the vendor in the act, which immediately put her off making the purchase.
Her bigger concern, however, was for all the cucumbers she had already bought without knowing how they had been handled beforehand.
She urged people to always rinse cucumbers thoroughly under running water or to peel the skin entirely if they wanted to be safe.
