It used to be a one night affair.
Halloween and the carved out pumpkin decorated many porches while children received their candy. So much fun. Parents and their children can spend a night together.
Why celebrate on just one night?
Halloween is now a season.
Brilliant idea.
The team at retaildive.com report, “Nearly seven in 10 consumers are planning to celebrate Halloween this year, a survey of more than 8,200 people by Prosper Insights & Analytics and the National Retail Federation found. The NRF predicts that consumers will spend $10.6 billion on Halloween this year, up from $10.1 billion last year.”
We certainly love Halloween and all the family fun that goes with it.
We love our older traditions and the creativity of developing new ones.
People worldwide love pumpkins and what they create, especially pumpkin pie.
Think about this.
During Halloween season, how many people fall in love with carving out the pumpkin and then throw perhaps the healthiest part away into the trash.
The seeds.
Now, that is a story where you have to take another look at something that loves your body and you’re not loving it back.
Perhaps you should rethink pumpkin seeds.
The informative group whfoods.com relates, “Pumpkin seeds have long been valued as a source of the mineral zinc, and the World Health Organization recommends their consumption as a good way of obtaining this nutrient.”
Pumpkin seeds are nutrient– and calorie-rich, with an especially high content of fat (particularly linoleic acid and oleic acid), protein, dietary fiber, and numerous micronutrients.
Pumpkin seeds are a common ingredient in Mexican cuisine and are also roasted and served as a snack.
Marinated and roasted, they are an autumn seasonal snack in the United States, as well as a commercially produced and distributed packaged snack, like sunflower seeds, available year-round.
Our best memories about pumpkins and what they offer are centered around food.
From milkshakes to cookies and of course pumpkin pies, when prepared properly, they just taste so good.
Time for a new tradition. It’s yummy.
