Like Nopales? Hate thorns? WELL DO WE HAVE THE PLANT FOR YOU. Thornless nopales has no big dangerous thorns! It does have some small splinters that are easily burned off on the stove. It's still a good idea to harvest with gloves or tongs. OH AND DID WE MENTION IT REQUIRES NO WATER. LIKE NONE. Never fear a lack of food with nopales around. Never fear.
