Yes, very much so.
From prickly pears you can make HFS by just squeezing.
From the seeds of prickly pears you can make an oil with the quality of olive oil but tasteless.
You can have your fill in Mexico, Australia, Turkey, USA, many more countries.

I havn't eaten one, but maybe i'll try it.

When I was a chef in Canada I would get cases and make sorbet with pomergranete juice, they are nice in a cold soup with strawberries.

I want to make chutney with them, even in a fruit based yougart with pineapple, it is something you just have to experiment with, but as stated there are some seed and occasionally they miss a spine when processing, but the high in vitamin C and low in fat.

what are prickly pears? is this an american name or something? or do we just not get prickly pears in britain?

i havent eaten them i dont even like pears

I like the leaves fried up in an omelet (yes I'm an omnivore), but I'm not wild about the fruit.

yes,
