What is the national fruit of Israel?

Hi, I'm doing some research about Israeli cuisine and their national food. What is their national fruit, and how do they use it?

The national fruit of Israel is the prickly pear (Sabra). Native Israelis use the Sabra to describe their national temperament, hard and prickly on the outside and sweet on the inside. The traditional way of eating the Sabra is to peel it and eat the soft sweet inside. It is also incorporated into various dishes.
