Didn't know they were called tunas, thought they were cactus pears. I think mine are white inside, or maybe that's my other cactus fruit. I've tried the pads and they are a pain to clean, even in our market they are still with the stickers!

I'm fortunate in that my Mexican market sells them thorn-free. But hubby says just hold them with a glove and whack 'em (carefully) off with a paring knife...although, they just used to use little "brooms" made of grasses and swipe it against them to get them off. You could also rub it on the grass...now this is what they did to eat them when they picked them straight from the cactus. If you get them from the market, just rubbing them off or using a small knife may be the easiest bet. Let me know what you try!Heather S-Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02722720171083290211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7506255364365307975.post-9361669983490764712011-07-19T14:37:34.919-04:002011-07-19T14:37:34.919-04:00I totally thought you meant the fish when this fir...I totally thought you meant the fish when this first popped up in my google reader.
