I got to judge pies a couple years ago for a church function and tried to avoid any variation of pumpkin like Walmart but a buddy of mine made sure I got one.
I distrust even well made pumpkin pies let alone the kind I got that had what seemed to have a Folgers coffee ground crust with a hint of beef bullion.
It felt like a joke.
Not only was it undercooked, it released something on first fork and I will never be the same. Pumpkins should all be permanently canceled or genetically modified into something less demonic.
They are decorations, not food.

So then what is your view on pumpkin smashing? In our area, no one decorates outdoors using pumpkins, because the neighborhood vandals (oops, I meant angelic children) will take the decorations into the street and smash them, ruining the decorations and causing a slick spot worse than ice in the street. But ghosts and ghouls can roam people’s yards and never get touched.
