You ever just see something and just want to bite into it?

I have no idea what a cactus pads taste like but when I see one on tv or or on the Internet, I just wished I had one to bite into. Take all the spines off, clean it, maybe chill it, idk, and munch on it like a cartoon character, leaving perfect bite marks behind.

They sell them in some grocery stores and most all Hispanic owned grocery stores here. They remove the large spines but you have to take a new scrubby pad and scrub off the tiny little spines before cooking. Then heat up a skillet add some olive oil and fry them, makes a good veggie sandwich. A Mexican lady that I worked with told me her husband wanted that about once a week. Not bad at all. I’m sure it has some health benefits, I know the fruit does.
