Cucumber Emoji
Meaning
A long, green cucumber with bumpy skin. Shown sliced to reveal its pale interior and seeds on Apple, WhatsApp, and Huawei, while on many other platforms, including Google, Samsung, and Microsoft, it more closely resembles a pickle or gherkin.
Given this notable design divergence, the draft Emoji 18.0 repertoire includes a distinct Pickle emoji. Emoji 18.0 is expected for approval in September 2026.
Known to be used in a NSFW manner, though less commonly than the 🍆 Eggplant emoji, likely due to the design divergence across platforms.
