   Eeeugh! Smells like apple sauce and tastes like toxic waste. I recommend plenty of cinnamon and nutmeg.

   Don’t be dissing the cactus.
   You think I’m going to eat it? Eating cacti; who ever heard of such a thing? It’s probably illegal, or something. I just like the look of those star shaped slices.
   After I got bored with taking pictures of the slices, I despined, peeled and cored it, cut it into chunks and froze them overnight. Just to see what would happen, like. Froze up a treat.
   Today my housemate was moved to hide the bowl of thawing chunks in the laundry, because he couldn’t stand the smell. (Or the sight. It looked like a bowl of toxic waste.)
   But I honestly couldn’t smell anything at all. Which is a bit strange.
   It has aroused my curiosity. Now that you mention it, I’m almost tempted to crush the refrozen chunks, strain the pulp and drink the resultant gooey snot-like juice.
   Just kidding. That would be gross etc.
