Personally, I love the stuff. It's a strong flavor that takes some getting used to but once you do, it's delicious. It can be eaten just as fruit or as candy as well.

Picking the fruit off the cactus can be hazardous however XD I made my cousin pick it. And we took it back to our grandma's and cut it up. Then we ate it like fruit. Very good. But I had the jam on rolls at a restaurant where I live.

Has anyone here had it any of these ways and do you like it? Or have you never heard of it before?

I had the jam back in 3rd grade, can't exactly remember it.
But I remember slightly enjoying it. biggrin.gif

Want to try it again some day.

Well, I live in Arizona so I see prickly pear cacti everywhere. But you can find recipes online to make homemade. But you can buy it online here And I'm sure there are other places too. (:

Ooh do you live near the desert?

What do they taste like? I've always wanted to try prickly pears after I saw them on Jeff Corwin.

I actually live IN the desert (:

It's hard to explain... when I ate them just as fruit, it reminded me of cantaloupe for some reason. The jam has a really different flavor than any other jam. I can't explain it. But it's good.

YellowMedic: No actually there weren't many seeds, if any. At least not that I noticed.
