  • How do you eat a prickly pear?

    I picked up some cactus pears at the local Mexican market, and can't figure out how to eat them. I peel them first, but the fruit is so full of hard seeds that it seems basically inedible. The taste is nice.

    I have no idea, but not too long ago I had some agua fresca made from prickly pear. It was gooooood.
    So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

        Robin, I think you have to boil it.

          To the seeds out? There are SO MANY. It is like eating sweet fruit mixed with gravel. I can see how the agua de tuna could work, where you filter out the seeds, but I think I would still prefer agua de melon.
