Ithorian cactus

Ithorian cactus was a type of cactus that shared its name with the Ithorian species, who were native to the planet Ithor. The cactus had scale flakes that were edible by humans and Iktotchi. In 228 BBY, the humans Jordanna Sparkburn and Sylvestri Yarrow invited Jedi Master Mirro Lox and his Padawan Amadeo Azzazzo to a meal at a canteen on the Republic Defense Coalition mobile launch and repair station. During their meal, the Iktotchi Pop Teeno served the group fried pom-cakes with spider seed and scale flakes from Ithorian cactuses. Teeno told them that he had recently learned the "funny little scale flakes" added a delicate flavor and went well with the fluff of the cake.
