    Eat them. They’re delicious. Get thick gloves and a curly bent knife. With the knife carve out all the “eyes” the little mounds where the thorns come from. Once removed:

    1. you can pickel them.
      2)toast them.
      3)boil/cook them.
      4)fry them.
      5)dry and powderize them.

    I suppose there must be other ways to eat prickly pear.
