The taste of cactus is very discreet, with a consistency similar to that of the asparagus and has a slight touch of acidity.
Thank you @curtiscolwell

I wonder how cactus is! I did not even know it was edible. The two 🌵🌵 on our window bench won't like to hear this! 😂 😋

hahaha
I tell you that I grew up eating this food in Mexico and always look for those original flavors in that wide variety of Mexican food.
Of course I've always liked to eat vegetarian🌵🌵
