When did this happen?

The pumpkin craze. It’s on the Y2K level.

Pumpkin oreos!?! Pumpkin butter? Pumpkin cookie scones? … Pumpkin Cornbread Croutons??

Based on my very unscientific research of a 2 second google search, we can blame starbucks and the pumpkin spice latte. For those behind the times, THIS season, we call it the PSL.

Overload in my opinion.

Mmm…did I mention there are pumpkin croutons in this recipe…?
