Cactus Fruit

I know people eat this fruit but all those cactus spines would scare me away! I love that splash of color that it adds to the desert!

Amazing capture, can that fruit be used for anything ??

What does it taste like? Love the color.

@tonydebont Yes,Tony! I looked it up and people do eat it but it didn't look good to me. Too many seeds. And way too dangerous!

Nice shot, the cactus spines look dangerous

[Suzie Townsend]

@rfilip They are very dangerous! I would never touch one!

@allie912 I have no idea, Allison, what they taste like but research indicates that when ripe they are very sweet. I think I have seen some jam/jelly made from them.

I love this picture but the cactus spines are dangerous! The must important here is the sharpness and colors and light! And i love it!
