Alea iacta est |
My awesome wife and I went out four wheelin and prickly pear picking today. It was quite a good day. Here are some pics. Also met a guy who looked like he needed some help. He was just pretripping his bike. Pretty custom Ninja chopped and turned into a quad. It was quite awesome to see.        The “lol” thread | ||

Yeah, prickly pear is a cactus fruit. They are rather sweet and taste has been described well as "natural bubblegum and watermelon". The juice is okay, and it mixes well with other juices. Think orange and grapefruit with a little cactus fruit to sweeten it. My wife likes it because of the antioxidants and health reasons. I have never eaten the fruit itself. It’s edible and a lot of people like it. It’s just a little too seedy for my liking. The landscape here is pretty awesome. I really like it and it’s great to get out four wheeling.

Let me know when you get here. You’re only 100 miles south. I have a Razor in the garage that needs to stretch its legs when it cools off. The “lol” thread | |||

My mom made jelly from the prickly pear fruits--it was really good! Very similar to red currant jelly. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

I've had it as jelly. Good. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

I was told the ones which grow on limestone hills do not taste as good. Ours never did. | |||

Plumbers torch. Pick them with tongs, bring home, wear welders gloves and torch the thorns. The “lol” thread | |||
