Saturday I was at Harmon's Grocery store and saw the prickly cactus fruit. It looked interesting to me, and I was thinking "I wonder what that tastes like." So I decided, why wonder, why not try it. Word of caution though... even though there aren't any "cactus pricks" on it, don't just carry it around, place it in a bag. The way you prepare it (according to the sign by the cactus), you wash it, peel it, than eat it. This is what I did. This is what it looks like inside.
It's a really pretty bright red fruit. It tasted different than what I thought. Although I didn't know what it would taste like to be honest. The best way I can describe it is that it's a mixture of a kiwi fruit and watermelon. I enjoyed it though, and wouldn't mind having it again.

That cactus looked really good! Trevor said he has eaten cactus before on his mission and liked it. I'm curious to try it myself now.
I highly recommend that you try it out if you get the chance. I was surprised at how cheap it was though. It was actually cheaper than splurging for a mango. (those are really good as well)
