To me, prickly pear tasted closest in flavor to kiwi fruit. I have seen it described as bland, but I love kiwi, so I would not categorize prickly pear as bland either. Depending on your preparation of the fruit, you may want to add a little (very little) sugar or pair it with another fruit, such as plums, but I know I will definitely buy and eat more prickly Pears!
