I was at the mexican grocery store buying a bunch of fruit and vegetables for my juicer. (btw I've been using it for 3 mos and lost 26 lbs. for all of you dieters out there) I ran into this prickly cactus so a bought a few pieces. I washed one, ran it through my juicer and the juice was really slimy.
Is it okay to drink?
Should I peel it first?
Thanks.

Slice it open and squeeze the juice out

no need to peel it but wash it very good as you should wash all your veggies yes you can blend it up. it's slimy because cactus is a very thick moister cont ex just like alo vera which is also very good for you to eat or drink just mix it with some fruit to give it some flavor
