Prickly pear fruit

Prickly pear fruit is a consumable item . It is the fruit from a prickly pear cactus.
==Characteristics==
Unlike barrel cactus fruit, prickly pear fruit doesn't detract from Endurance. Two prickly pears are required to craft a bloatfly slider. Two of them can also be used with an empty soda bottle to make purified water.

===Fruit===
* Two fruit can be found placed atop a grave in Goodsprings Cemetery, along with some coyote tobacco chew.
* Dried version, one of the items converted from the seed package near the Dionaea Muscipula. 
* One can be acquired every three in-game days after the completion of Field Research, once the Biological research station has been upgraded.

==Notes==
* Carrying prickly pear fruit will provide four times more hydration per weight than water. This bonus rises to 7.5 times (1285 H2O recovery per pound of weight carried) with 100 Survival and the Pack Rat and Camel of the Mojave perks. Without Camel of the Mojave (because of consuming prickly pear instead of water) this rises further to 8.6 times (1285/150).
* Turning two prickly pear fruits into one bottle of purified water increases the H2O benefit from 90 to 150 at 100 Survival at the expense of 0.86 pounds of weight over simply carrying the fruits by themselves.
* Randall Clark mentions in a May 5, 2083 terminal entry that he has discovered banana yucca, honey mesquite, and prickly pear are still safe to eat after the war, despite minor mutations.Two Skies cave terminal entries; terminal, Year 2083.Year: 2083
