Ran out of the store-bought pads, and rather than drive the 23 miles to the nearest town w/ a grocery, I cut a pad off of the spineless opuntia I've been growing...and noticed that my "home-grown" has MUCH tougher skin than the store bought pads (had to sharpen my Buck before I finished cutting it up, 'cause my torts were having no luck w/ quartered pads, while the store-bought stuff doesn't dull the blade to any great extent).
So, is there different varieties of spineless opuntia?
