You know that cactus in your grandma’s window? It actually produces fruit! The Indian Fig, also called the prickly pear, comes in vibrant magenta, orange, or green. Yes, a cactus can be delicious—who knew?
The trick is to handle it with care (watch the tiny spines!). But once you peel it, you get a juicy, watermelon-like treat with a hint of bubblegum. Pro tip: chill it first and eat it with a spoon for a zero-effort dessert.
