All Hallows Eve

 We're fast coming to that time of year when millions of people will be buying food, only to carve it into a face and then chuck it in the bin. I speak, of course, of the humble pumpkin. It seems, especially when some can't afford to feed their families, to be a terrible waste of food.


We always buy a load of cheap pumpkins on the day after Halloween, when the price drops dramatically, and use them for delicious soups. They last a couple of months, at least.

I can only assume that you too chop up your pumpkin and then chuck it away before making delicious soups because I've always found them to be watery and tasteless. Much better off with a turnip.
