I never had prickly pears before. It’s a different taste and texture but I like it OK. I just didn’t like all the hard tiny seeds. I’m hoping that when I juice them, my juicers works well enough that it eliminates the seeds, so I can just enjoy the taste. I’m glad I bought it though because I heard so much about these pears and I do care about the nutritional value that it holds.

Nice soft texture with a crunch and a little sweetness to go with it.
