It's that time of year.....everything pumpkin spice thread.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that... I don't drink coffee at all since I can't stand the taste of it but I imagine for some people that would be awful!

The hardest thing to give up is my coffee, which is only one cup. I now have to find plain chickory as coffee. Its okay though I am getting used to it.

Basically any of the stuff from Trader Joe's! I loved the pumpkin cinnamon rolls last year, but have yet to see them this year, I'm also on the lookout for the new cookie butter. I tried their harvest salsa which is good.

My breakfast has been completely taken over by pumpkin! Pumpkin coffee, oatmeal, scones, pancakes, bagels, smoothies, scrambles, waffles, puddings, French toast...

I've also made curries, soups, chili, and stews with pumpkin, stuffed squash, which is so similar to pumpkin, and lots of roasted root veggies, which give me the same happy autumn feels as pumpkin!

I am not a fan of the flavor but I love the scent. I got some wax cubes that were a pumpkin spice scent. I am a little weird about stuff and refuse to acknowledge the "harvest" type stuff until October.

Now that October is almost here and I am excited to use them, I cannot remember where I put them

OMG... That little newsboy cap


I dislike most pumpkin spice things. I make a lot of it for DH but I am not into it AT ALL.

Fall is all about the cider doughnuts. Not the kind you buy already packaged at the grocery store, or even the orchard... The ones from Indian Ladder Farms from the walk up windows that are only open on the weekends.

I bought some pumpkin spice cream cheese from Aldi the other day - surprisingly all-natural and quite good (it tastes like pumpkin puree mixed with cream cheese, which is essentially what it is). Also Coffeemate makes an all-natural pumpkin spice creamer that I bought on a whim, and it's also quite good!

I sort of hate everything pumpkin flavored. I don't even like pumpkin pie. The pumpkin spice craze has gotten WAY out of control. A few years ago they had pumpkin spice Pringles. I'll just leave you guys with that thought.

I saw those Pringles and just rolled my eyes. I agree that there are many ridiculous pumpkin spice flavored products these days.

You know, I don't even think I actually know what pumpkin tastes like. They just don't do it as much in the UK. You can get pumpkins to make into jackolanterns, that's about it.

Well, pumpkins ARE an Americas food. On Buzz Feed last year there was an article something like "British People Try Pumpkin Pie." Almost all of them went "yuck."

 

[RedAngie]

I violated my rule of no pumpkin before October 1 because someone brought in pumpkin spiced bagels and cream cheese this morning and urged us to try them. Horrible. I'm still staring at the half uneaten thing trying to find a discrete way to dispose of it unnoticed.

But in general I do enjoy pumpkin flavored things. Coffee, muffins, etc. Pumpkin cheesecake is to die for. A Jersey Shore candy shop has great pumpkin fudge. Last year at Target I got Archer Farms pumpkin pancake mix. Hopefully they have it again this year.

I can'r find who said Pumpkin spice flavored Pringles but ewwwwww. Why lol I have not seen them yet.
BUT I did see M and M's has a candy corn flavored candy out. If I want candy corn why wouldn't I just buy candy corn.

Just had a cup of Twinings Pumpkin Chai K-cup tea, along with a pumpkin thomas' english muffin (with brown sugar cream chese!) - OK, i've had my "pumpkin" fix for today!

 

[Grumpy's Wife]

I had no idea they had this many pumpkin spice foods out there. I will definitely be on the lookout when at the grocery this week. I've only had one Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Frozen Frappuccino and it was really good. Maybe because it's blended you didn't taste the pulp so much in the new recipe. I am on my third bottle of International Delight's Pumpkin Spice Creamer. That stuff is to die for. Oh, and I did get a new pumpkin candle from Bath & Body Works. It makes the whole house smell wonderful.

I dislike pumpkin, even the candles.

Generally not a huge fan of pumpkin spiced things - can't stand PSL - but at some of the candy shops at WDW they are selling Pumpkin fudge. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
We were all very apprehensive to try it, but we decided to try it as part of the 6 piece 33% off discount. Long story short, that was the first piece of fudge gone. We demolished it.
Then had to search 6 different places to find it again - Frontierland. And bought 6 pieces of it.

So yeah. Try it.

 

[Meriweather]

Love. love pumpkin spiced things, but can't have most of it.
I have tea.....and it is only okay.
I will bake my own bread, so DGD can try it (dairy allergy).
Love the smell and Thursday will bring out the candles.

I just had a pumpkin spice Dairy Queen blizzard. It was good had little pieces of pie crust in it. I also had the pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks the first day I saw it on the menu.

I thought of this thread when I saw this story. Sales of Pumpkin Flavored foods and drinks are soaring, while sales of Pumpkins themselves are dropping.

Finally made it over to Trader Joe's today - WOW, do they have a ton of pumpkin stuff! I was very good and only bought one thing - the mini ginger pumpkin ice cream mouthfuls. They are yummy!!

OMG! Totally forgot to post here-- was at Trader Joe's Saturday and they were sampling these little vanilla cookies that they put Pumpkin Spice Cookie Butter on. A.MAZ.ING! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trader-joes-pumpkin-spice-cookie-butter_5605790be4b0768126fd4429 I can't believe my daughter managed to get me out of the store without buying some (all!) of it.

Went to WAWA for my free coffee this morning and decided to try the Pumpkin Spice blend brewed coffee. Delicious! Had it with my Truvia and sugar free French Vanilla creamer and it was almost as good as a PSL. I also bought their fresh pumpkin donuts for my coworkers and I to try. They thought they were quite good but I was unimpressed-- I didn't think it tasted much different than a regular cake donut.

Oh... I need to go back and look for that! I told my mom about the ginger pumpkin mini ice cream sandwiches. She found them in her store in Oregon and she and my dad love them. My dad called them dangerous - they are SO good!

Yesterday on Free Coffee Day I had my first Pumpkin Spice coffee. OMG I enjoyed it SO much...I'm just waiting around now for Little Debbie to put out their Pumpkin Delight cakes and I'll be in heaven.
