America ruined us with Pumpkins, try a turnip. I still remember the smell of burning turnip...

It's nearly 2 weeks away Halloween will these keep that long ?

Will it last for the day of carving, I have no idea how long they keep for as I dont eat pumpkin.

For 50p they are a decent size.

Very good offer they are £3 at the co-op all sizes! And got loads at my local store.

Honestly though, there’s nothing quite like a proper pumpkin soup. This one is an absolute basic from Maddie in our food team, and you can take it wherever you want with more spices, more ingredients and lovely toppings. Speaking of which, don’t forget to make the most of your pumpkin by roasting the seeds – they make a great topping for this soup.

Hallowe'en is not American! but the obnoxious 'trick or treat' is!

Ordered 2 yesterday with my shopping for delivery today, shopping came but no Pumpkins ?!- out of stock we were told. (Leeds)

Excellent for roasting. Drizzle a bit of oil, salt, pepper, some bacon or bacon lardons on top whilst cooking absolutely delicious, get a few pumpkins and put them in the freezer if you have space, Halloween month is the best because they are always so cheap.

As Halloween is a US import..... What?! oOoO

As Halloween is a US import, perhaps we should consider Trumpkins as well:

At these prices there must be lots of farmers / growers getting royally bent over!

The ones in Aldi for a £1 are massive in comparison to these supposed large Asda ones

Great price :smiley:

agreed, I prefer to farm melons :man:

Brings a hole new meaning to pump kin shorts... or the orange weaner :confused:

when has a pumpkin ever been spooky? :stuck_out_tongue:
