Exposed romex used for low voltage lighting under cabinets

[Fast1911]

Is it legal to use 12-2 romex exposed under a kitchen cabinet to feed a 12 volt strip light?

Is the romex subject to physical damage?

If you didn't use NM cable then what would you use?

I would probably use MC cable. Romex is a little smaller for the application. It's not really subject to physical damage.
