    Yes, call me basic or whatever, but you can take my seasonal pumpkin spice flavored food and beverages from my cold, dead hands!

      I personally believe there’s nothing wrong with basic

      Like I don’t think people should always stay with basic and not explore

      But sometimes basic is just comfortable and I think striving for comfort is a good thing

        What else would you use to flavor pumpkin spice flavored food other than real pumpkin spice then? It’s not like powdered cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and ginger are hard to come by…

          There’s artificial pumpkin spice flavor used in various products.
          That’s why you should read the ingredients for any product that claims “flavored” as it’s a loosely regulated term when it comes to the marketing aspect of a product.
          The artificial flavor is proprietary so I couldn’t tell you what they’re comprised of.
          Most pumpkin spice products do use real pumpkin spice, but I’ve found a small few that don’t. In particular some weird off-brand candy.
