fichi d'india (prickly pears)

Ciao
Last week we showed the children a food eaten by some southern Italians. They were prickly pears. We discussed where they would grow in Italy, and where they would grow near Yarrambat. Most children did not realise that the fruit of the cactus was edible. We discussed the need to wear strong gloves if they are to be picked since they have many very fine prickles. Signora Di Sera said "Non mi piace."
Signora Nac said "Mi piace un po."
