Default No Pumpkin pies this yr :(

or until around Halloween or Thanksgiving......

DIL wanted to make a pumpkin cheesecake this weekend... it required a can of REAL pumpkin, not the pie mix stuff(although you can't find that either).... she went to 4 stores and NADA... someone said a something about a pumpkin shortage...!!! WHAT???? so we Googled it.... sur 'nuf..
Amid pumpkin shortage, growers hope for a dryer summer

I, myself, also went to 5 stores in a different town than hers....... NADA... not one can of pumpkin ANYTHING on the shelves.....

*SIGH* guess the cheesecake will just have to wait until Thanksgiving......if we can find pumpkin by then.....

OH BTW... you can find it on eBay..........$30 a can........ geezzz......

i also have looked in all the grocery stores around my area for canned pumpkin and they dont have any. i need it for minnie, when i feed her it she doesnt seem to get the anal gland problem. the only store i have found it at ( around 40 minute drive away ) is Whole Foods. they have canned organic pumpkin, alot left on shelf. so if you have a Whole Foods, try there! its around 2.50 a can
( i stocked up , so i have enough to last until halloween, but might buy more just in case )

Ya, I remember last year when the weather was super rainy, it was just too wet in the south for them to continue growing and ended up turning to mush! They jacked up the prices then, too. I know a lot of local farmers that made sure to do early crops this year just in case it got too rainy again during their normal season. Too bad though that they are price gouging so noticeably...
