I seem to remember them trying to ban women from buying cucumbers, or maybe putting cucumbers and other vegetables like tomatoes next to each other because they were too phallic looking.

I read about a harem where the Sultan forbade the residents to eat cucumbers because they were used for, ahem, other purposes. (Those women were very frustrated.)
