As someone currently growing more cucumbers than I can handle (gardener problems), I've been eating at least 2 a day of a few different varieties, including a somewhat bitter pickling variety.

That said, I've never experienced the burping side effect many report. Makes me very curious what's going on metabolically to cause some to burp but not others. Can gas produced by the microbiome of the upper tracts of the intensities make it back up into ones stomach?? All very fascinating regardless.
