Are You Really Eating Pumpkin?

Are You Really Eating Pumpkin?

[written by Daniel Britt]

There’s a post going around, with disgust, that canned pumpkin really isn’t pumpkin, but squash!

I’ve been checking out the cans at the supermarket, and I am showing one ingredient listed: pumpkin. So what’s the deal?

The story is… the USDA allows some ambiguity between gourds, squash, pumpkin terminology.

But, according to Snopes, this has some hoaxy origins. Check it out here: http://www.snopes.com/canned-pumpkin-isnt-actually-pumpkin/

If it tasted like pumpkin, but were really squash, would that matter to you? You can always call or text The Morning JoyRide Studio at 888-985-6936!
