Pumpkin: Roast Your Own or Buy a Can at the Store? You Decide.

The summer is coming to an end in about nine days.  Wah.  There was no real summer season in Rochester but ah well.  One thing I love about the fall season is pumpkins!  I have an annual ritual to buy some pumpkins to make my own pumpkin purees for some amazing pumpkin dishes.   I often swear that my homemade pumpkin puree makes the dish taste much better than the store-bought can of pumpkin puree.

Here's why: http://www.myrecipes.com/menus/i-just-found-out-canned-pumpkin-isnt-pumpkin-at-all-and-my-whole-life-is-a-lie

Good to know, eh? I am pretty religious about reading the food labels but sometime it's easy to forget if I believe it's the real stuff.  This served as a reminder that reading labels is key because you don't know what is really contained inside that can or package.
