Hanging tree cactus blooming. (Rhipsalis pilocarpus)

Rhipsalis pilocarpus. I hear the tiny fruit the follow are edible.
I might try..I get the feeling they have tiny spines.

They do have tiny spines, or hairs. They are red.

I might pass. I've had Opuntia glochids from "Tuna's" I thought I had cleaned just fine,stick in the craw of my throat.
Not anything painful...but takes the fun out of it.
