Yes it is a lovely cactus and also an interesting ethnobotanical. I did some research and found that its needles were used by native americans for tattooing. The fruits are cooked and have a cabbage-like texture/flavor. The entire cactus itself was hallowed out and hot stones were placed in it to be used for a cooking bot.. quite interesting if you ask me..

Dr :ronpaul: says to stop trying to treat the side-effects of big government and focus on the core issues. End the Federal Reserve/audit the gold reserves at Fort Knox, abolish the IRS, end all wars and occupancies, stop the building of an empire that will inevitably fail, and cut all unconstitutional federal programs. Put the power back in the peoples' hands by ending this nanny-state.

It's the same family but a different species Echinocactus grusonii it seems.
They both seem to produce akin fruits.

yeah the golden barrels are cool looking. They are more rounded (globe looking) than the fish hook ones. I saw a golden barrel down my street with a bunch of dried flowers. I may go to it one of these nights and collect some seeds..
