LOL.. I had forgotten all about it til you mentioned it. Where we were trying to cut one open to see what it tasted like? I just remember it being a prickly, red-staining mess!
I just left there after a four-year stay. Enjoy the summer baking, and remember your water bottle. In the weird food stores I recommend mango juice. The thicker, the better. Oh and watermelon juice from the market is very refreshing. And my favorite Mexican pastry is the pumpkin empanada. Like pumpkin pie, but not overly sweet. I cannot recommend the chili powder-coated candies though. Never could get used to them.

Prickly pears aren't as bad as the jumping cactus! I had one of those stick to my leg and it took me a while to get it off.
