Smells like a Veggie smoothie, has annoying seeds and grows on a cactus plant. This fruit is literally begging for u to leave it alone.🤣🤣🤣
Lmaoooo
I would like to try it
@@GoldenGully hi golden gully
@@El_the_silly_goober hi Mel Payne Hii to all who said hello to me

Not a bad idea
He hearted it so he's making it
😂😂
@@puff6394 i mean if he didnt say “you MADMAN” then maybe
@@therealgdx YEAHH thats what I was thinking lol
Your opinions are among the only ones I find on CZcams that I find genuine. I love how you don't overexaggerate anything like most creators on here do.
Only facts here 💯
Amongus?
Exactly I completely agree
@@GoldenGully You're not supposed to touch the prickly pear. It has glochids that are microscopic that go into your skin.
thats just not true, you only look at the top 0.1% of creators youtubes algorithm pushes that old heads and little pre pubescent kids will watch, find content that you truly enjoy watching, itll take a while but youll find some amazing creators, i have some that ive watched almost all their videos because of how funny or enticing or interesting i found them and their content, go deeper. But i gotta agree, gully is a goated creator, im just sayin, look further.
Just peel off the skin and enjoy it! The seeds can be swallowed, good texture contrast imo. Also when you peel off the skin watch for tiny spikes that might poke into your skin.
I put my hands all over one 😫😫
My dream is to try all different kinds of cactus fruit, in my area we have it orange colored idk if it's different than the red or purple ones but it's so good
Gotchuuu thanks
@@HasanUnknown 😐
@@HasanUnknown your a bot but, i never knew you guys were THAT halal mode like, Sooooo halal mode
Here in Morocco we just eat it as it is after we peel it, yes the seeds are an inconvenience at first but after a bit of time you get used to it, and it seems you tried the red cactus fruit which tend to be less sweeter than the summer cactus fruit (which have a yellow/green colour on it), definitely would recommend the summer cactus fruits since those are sweeter
I was on a trip to Morocco and a I saw a person with a cart selling it just outside my hotel. I tried and it and it is probably one of my favourite fruits I’ve ever had. Glad I went to Morocco
My family and I usually just swallow the seeds lol. Usually we peel these, put them in containers, and refrigerate them so that we can have some ready to eat cold straight out of the fridge. Its flavour imo is so much more enjoyable (and very refreshing!) when eaten straight out of the fridge; so good that we don't even bother with spitting the seeds out and just swallow them instead.
Did you know a plant grew inside of a man's lung from peas. And it could happen with any seed
@@bane9951 bro why you inhaling the seeds. they're supposed to go down to your stomach.
@@mahoumofo LMAO
@@mahoumofo you nailed it😂😂😂
@@bane9951 no way I thought things like that were myths. would swallowing melon seeds be harmful too?
There's green ones, too! My favorite are these red ones. Peel skin, cut into big cubes or coins and place in fridge to chill for an hour or more. However cold you'd like them or not. Sprinkle lime and a bit of Tajin on top 🤌 the seeds can be eaten as well, not chewed on but just swallowed. Like eating guava.
Cactus fruit looks cool, never tried it, I hope it’s good so I just wanna see you react.
In Spanish we call them “Tunas” and they’re popular in Mexico, they’re so good when they’re ice cold and we just swallow the seeds, there’s a green kind too and those are better imo 😁
@@angellopez5315yeah the green ones are my go to
i tried it ripe it was soooo delicious
Looks good! I have tried it before. It’s good you enjoyed the fruit.
I love your videos keep up the good work 👏
That looks very good
This is a pretty famous fruit in my country. Most of the times I have this in my house. So prickly pear has small, hard seeds that you cannot bite through, but they are safe to swallow if you prefer. Or You can also use a juicer or strainer to remove the seeds. Hope this helped :) this is how I eat it
Edit- you should also try wood apple, white star apple and
That looks great!
I love your vids they are sick and I have seen each one
Love your videos gully
I grew up in Arizona and had this all the time. The seeds are annoying but I just swallow them 😅
I love it!! It's very common to find here in summer, my favorite
I love these so much! My grandma was Armenian and she use to always give them to me after sun-drying them 😀
I’ve never tried it before but it looks very good. Love your taste test vids 👍
I have never tried one before but the color and sounds you made wanted me to try it 🤤
Next thing yall know my man gonna make a cactus fruit kulfi… (60% probability)
Noooo 😅
@@GoldenGully lol
@@GoldenGully and today is your cheat day
In the middle east this is a very common fruit we eat during summer. It’s very sweet most of the time (unless not ripe) and comes in red, orange, or bright yellow. We eat it whole, including the seeds (nothing is thrown away except the outer layer)
Definitely one of my favorite fruits ever!
Great video! I love that I found a youtuber with the same culture as I! Your my fav youtuber😊
I remember trying these for the first time a while ago. I thought it was pretty good, unfortunately i was oblivious to the invisible thorns of doom that are straight from hell
Same, i've tried it the first time 2 days ago and i still have some of these thorns in my hands
Those are called glochids and you have to burn them off the fruit. I recommend holding it with tongs and taking a lighter/torch and burning them off but be careful not to char the fruit itself. This takes practice but it’s totally worth it
grew up eating these (the yellow ones taste a little bit more tart, the red ones are sweeter) but I don't think I ever had one so smooth I could hold it with my hands like you did, usually they are full of really sharp tiny needles.
prickly pear juice + lemon juice makes for an insane granita or shaved ice
for those who drink, prickly pear juice goes really well with sambuca/ouzo/rakija/rakı
Never been a fan of the fruit just by itself but in jam it’s good!
I've seen these on cacti once my dad tried to get one bit he got spiked, these look delicious!
yeah they are called prickly for a reason
You can blend seeds and drink it with water
Gotchuuu thanks
@@GoldenGully np
Where I come from we eat a lot of Prickly Pear and to me they always tasted like a mix of honeydew and pear (the orange or green ones).
The way you eat it is with the whole seeds! You just do shallow chews to break the meat apart and then swallow the broken-down pulp with the seeds.
cactus fruit is very popular in north africa ! we usually peal it and eat it just like you did
the seeds add some crunch and are fun to pop in your mouth , after two three bites you get used to their texture
Prickly pear kulfi is the next vid. I know itttt.
You should see the green ones, those are like half seeds and taste like a pear! I personally love prickly pear even though theres so many seeds, its just satisfying and fun to eat for me
i love having these in the mornings, soo refreshing! you’re supposed to eat the seeds too haha
I once saw this prickly pear on a video of Brave Wilderness when I was really small. He said that in the desserts, mostly turtles eat these for food and hydration. These things grown ok cactuses 🌵
In Phoenix a chain called salad and go has prickly pear lemonade in the summer and it’s so good.
There are some great cactus fruit where I live. It’s super sweet and very delicious. You just peel the outer layer and eat it, just swallow the seeds it’s great
There are many different types of this fruit. I’m from NYC and they are known here. FYI, The cactus grows wild all over Mexico; it's also cultivated on plantations. So, it’s used in many dishes. From sweet to savory.
Looks so good
1. Pick pear (if off plant directly use gloves or tongs)
2. Using tongs hold pear to flame to burn off spines.
3. Cool.
4. Cut in half and enjoy
I use a fork to avoid seeds
This brings back memories of me spending hours looking for Prickly Pears in RDR1.
Cactus Fruit is really tender and you can eat the seeds. You barely need to chew it, usually I just mash it with my tongue against the roof of my mouth cuz the fruit is so juicy and soft. You can also use it for smoothies/ milkshakes and sauces too. Very good and refreshing ✨
You can peal it before cutting it it's easier, and for the seeds try not to bite them you won't get bothered, and you can swollow them.
We eat it in Syria but i notice that our cactus fruit has a different color, it's a dark orange color and it's really really sweet
I peel it. Chop it up. Put it in a pan with water and boil it down. Then I strain it and put the juice back in the pan, add sugar and make prickly pear syrup. It's red in color and so good in mixed drinks. My family also likes it on pancakes and waffles. One of my families favorite.
I'm from New Mexico and we love to make food out of prickly pears down here! You can make drinks, jelly, juice, syrup, but most people make candies 😋
In Egypt these are sold in the streets (kinda like hotdogs in the us but not really) there are also yellow ones that are really common and honestly I don’t think I ever ate one with the seeds or at least didn’t feel them
This is actually a very common fruit in Egypt. But we call it تين شوكي. Translates to prickly figs.
This is a delicacy in Sicily and we just eat it with the seeds (there are different varieties with different levels of sweetness) the red ones are usually super sweet and sugary so maybe the one you got isn’t the best quality
In my backyard I have purple cactus fruit. A bunch of them that grow in certain seasons. Next time I should try them and see how they taste.
This is the most curious time I’ve ever seen gully been
I think either gully is suffering from cold or he's just awake.
it's a very popular fruit in egypt called teen shoky and usually we just peel it and eat it with its seeds like the guava
In my country these are consumed alot , but the only downside is there are huge seeds everywhere you bite , doesn't scare people tho lmao
Would love to try it, looks like a mix of passion fruit and red dragon fruit
Same
I’ve had it before it’s like dragon fruit and yes u do peel it and also btw just like swallow the seeds.
Its a very common desert in north africa, and usually we try to avoid the red ones cause they usually taste bad and (rarely) cause food poisoning, btw u can swallow the seeds.
This is very famous in Egypt everyone loves it there is another color yellow it's really refreshing in hot summer seeds no1 chew we jus swallow it cools your stomach specially if it's cold
golden gully hope you can try mangosteen next. Really great fruit from asia
Might be a different variety here but cactus fruits I've had taste like a cross between dragon fruit and strawberry, they're very sweet and the seeds are edible
We have these in Algeria and they're green for some reason, they're really nice when you get used to the seeds
You can eat the seeds and most times the yellow greenish ones are sweet they are in different colours too and i ate one yesterday
I love how he says DRAYGUN fruit 😂
🤤 looks so yummy ngl
my fav!
So the way to peel it is to cut the top and bottom portions, then make a vertical slit and that's how you roll the fruit out. The seeds are edible just don't eat too many fruits otherwise you'll have a hard time pooping lol
Brother you can eat it just like this with the seeds, I have plenty of it in my garden. 3 different colors usually.
The green ones from my experience are the freshest.
Watch out though, apparently you shouldn't eat a lot of it or with an empty stomach otherwise you'll have constipation
Theres like one way i know on how to eat it, you take a sock (a clean one at least or just a brand new one that you wont use ever again) and put the peeled fruit in then squeeze the juices into your mouth, its a fun way and you don’t get seeds
We have like this in Egypt...but it's yellow and green u cut it from the side and wear gloves because it's feals like cactus spikes and it's very soggy but it's delicious 🙃🙃
Adam Ragusea has a great video talking about cactus fruit and how to eat it I really recommend it!
Put into a blender with speed settings, a low enough speed will juice fruit while not being able to grind the seeds. So strain afterwards, maybe add some sugar or whatever you want.
It’s a Arizona state favorite lots of people in my area love the margaritas they are made with.
In Morocco it's called z3boul end you eat it with the seeds plus the yellow one's are the sweetest . 😀
Here in egypt when they’re in season they’re literally everywhere in the street being sold precut. It’s very popular here. My mom LOVES it but I really don’t understand the hype. And yeah, you just swallow the seeds 😅
Yum yum yum me: Golden gully: what!
The seeds are actually supposed to be swallowed but when blending it there normally filtered out.
in my country we call it spikey figs but the seed are totally edible also its more of just swolloing than it is chewing
Me: CACTUS FRUIT KULFI TIME!!
GoldenGully: you guys know Saturdays are my cheat days...
Make a smoothie with the cactus pear
My favorite description of prickly pear was "Like cotton candy, pear, and dirt." I still like it.
Gully in a week be like-
Let's try cactus fruit kulfi.
The green ones are better imo. They have a more just straight up, sugar flavor. It's just straight up sweet. The red ones are more plant like, just as sweet but with a plant like flavor. They are my favorite fruits :)
I tried this for the first time yesterday and got cactus dermatitis 😂 Luckily it was super minor and has already gone away. The fruit does taste really yummy in my opinion, but I also hated the seeds because they were so thick and hard to chew.
"i guess you can peel it. ohhhh it almost ooooooooo"
- GoldenGully
I never tried it but it looks like a vegetable ngl but I really love your videos GoldenGully :)
I used to eat those in Syria when I was 7 years old! Was my favourite 💗
Lots of people already mentioned it but you can swallow the seeds. Same as you can for a guava
You can swallow the seeds it helps a lot with digestion,
Wow an legendary fruit .
"Is there seeds on the inside..?"
*famous last words*
You can put it in some kind of a fabric strainer and juice it
I want to try it
In Egypt it hits different my friend
Cactus fruit here (Lebanon, Middle east) is yellow in color, with bigger seeds. But we just swallow them haha
I can literally see the Cactus fruit kulfi coming.
Its Saturday , You Know its my cheat day
It looks really good besides the seeds
Agreed, definitely better without seeds lol
@@GoldenGully i commented on how to eat it u can check how
in Turkey, prickly pears are more yellowish and has alot of seeds that must be swallowen in order to eat the fruit. And I'm not even talking about the little thorns that often makes you end up in the hospital if you are not carefull enough. I hope you hands are ok lol
