"Cactus - High in Vitamins"

This website was all about people who are vegan vegetarians and how they eat Nopales cactus in most of their food dishes. They have studied this certain type of cactus and have found it to be high in vitamins. Further study of Nopales cactus has shown that it is also good for people to eat that have diabeties. The picture shown in the website of Nopales cactus was the kind of cactus that is kind of thick and oval. You remove the prickers and you can dice it up to use in your food. This is the kind of cactus they use at the diner I am going to do my observations in. Now I understand why it is used in Mexican dishes because it is good for you. I hope to see some of it cleaned.
