So I keep seeing these referenced in various media formats but I don’t recall ever seeing one on the menu where I live (Australia). Maybe they are sold under a different name? Maybe only in some places and I wasn’t paying attention? I don’t know, but I sure know I’ve never ordered one.

Am I missing out? What do these taste like? What’s the hype all about?

Also- is there a popular food/drink you aren’t against trying, that you haven’t tried yet?

    Fun fact, pumkin pies arent actually made with pumpkims, but a certain kind of squash. Its usually made with hubbards or butternut.

      Is this true? I’ve always used the large cans of 100% pumpkin purée to make pumpkin pie - I thought most people did.

        Yah. The can of “pumpkin” filling that most people use is actually a different squash and not a pumpkin (at least the one we think of when you say pumpkin). A pumpkin doesnt have a hard definition, its just a family of hard shelled squashes. Its just not that typical orange pumpkin.
