Prickly sticks, also known as "prickly pear cactus pads," refer to the flattened stems of the prickly pear cactus, which are covered in tiny, hair-like spines called glochids. These pads are edible and are commonly used in various culinary dishes, particularly in Mexican cuisine, where they are known as "nopales." In addition to their culinary uses, prickly sticks also have ornamental value and can be used in landscaping. However, care must be taken when handling them due to their spines.
