It depends on which cactus is being eaten. Some are poisonous while others are beneficial and highly nutritious. Prickly pear pads are a winner as long as you get the right type. I have read online that there is a poisonous strain of prickly pear that has an orange coloring in its spines. Some prickly pear has been selectively reproduced to eliminate the spines and it is used as a human and animal food staple in desert areas, such as Mexico.
