Be it the scent or flavor, it seems to be such a big deal every fall for places like the US. It is pretty much everywhere. Pumpkin spice this, pumpkin scent that... You can't escape it. I have never been a fan of the stuff be it whole real pumpkin or pumpkin-flavored things. I do eat pumpkin seeds though. That is about it.

I like pumpkin in certain dishes but it isn't something I go out of my way to have exclusively on its own. I never liked pumpkin drinks. I just don't understand why so many women go nuts for the stuff. lol

I don't know if I have ever had it other than a minor ingredient in something. I don't think anyone in my family honestly eats it. Maybe I will have to try something this year and see what I think of it.

I think it is okay. Nothing fancy or special. I think of it sort of like a sweet avocado of sorts. Those are nice but the way people in the US are obsessed with those and pumpkins, it is kind of funny.

I don't like it. I have tried it raw, cooked, as dessert, as a flavor... It just isn't for me. I don't like cherries either and they seem to go overboard with those as well.

I like it as a desert. Like actual pumpkin pie but I have to be in the mood for it. I tend to only enjoy it in the fall and I don't like pumpkin-flavored things.

@hanbin_fan I have had it before and I don't think it is bad but at the same time, it is not something I ever find myself craving. I just don't understand the hype around the stuff.

I think it is okay. I mean I have had different sorts of food with it in it. I have had one of those coffees with pumpkin in it, that pumpkin spice latte or whatever you call it. I didn't buy it, it was actually a mistake order when I was with a friend and she told me to have it. It wasn't something I would go out of my way for but I liked it.
