Canned pumpkin isn’t the same as fresh pumpkin.

Just tell them to scoop out the insides so they can carve the Jack-O-Latern.

…too much of which will give you the runs… and yes, that’s from personal experience. :-sAs a side note, isn’t it from the meat of the pumpkin, not the guts? :-s

I never liked the taste of pumpkin. I prefer sweet potato pie.

Isn’t a pumpkin a squash?

But it will get sweeter guys!

How about baking pumpkin seeds over night on a low set oven and with various toppings . . . powdered sugar, cinnamon, or even garlic and onion. Nice snacks all the way to Thanksgiving!

WAIT a minute !! You make pumpkin pie from the FLESH, or outsides, NOT from the inside guts and seeds !! Typical guys writing this !! I used to think pie was made from the outsides, too !!

Too bad ……. it comes down to a CHOICE, you either can use the pumpkin for a jack-o-lantern, and get the inside flesh all black and useless, or make pies ….. but NOT both !! Good thing there are plenty of pumpkins, and they’re CHEAP !!
