Prickly Pear is a large, spiny cactus that produces juicy red fruit, also known as cactus fruit. This sweet southwestern delicacy thrives in many regions of the Southwest, including around the Grand Canyon. Many describe its flavor as a cross between banana and raspberry. Prickly Pear plays a vital role in the Grand Canyon ecosystem and has long been used as a food source by those who have lived in the region for generations. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, its fruit is commonly enjoyed in a variety of treats, from candies and chocolates to jellies and sauces.
