My kid wanted one and it wasn't expensive, but I was kind of surprised that sales tax was added on the premise that it wasn't going to be eaten. There seems to be some controversy in several states over this, especially Iowa. Sales tax wasn't charged if a statement of use was filed or pumpkins were purchased with food stamps. Certain varieties like sugar pie pumpkins weren't taxed. The tax got rescinded quickly.

At least here in California I don't think this is charged consistently. I don't recall being charged last year. I've roasted pumpkin seeds before, so it can be used as food.
