I looked real close at them today and decided to pass until next week. I have a friend who worked for Costco. He said they bake these things constantly before thanksgiving and store them in a refrigerator truck out back.

Not fond of pumpkin pie anymore. Buttermilk Custard pie is our Thanksgiving pie. Pecan also.

No pumpkin pie tastes good to me except Libby’s classic recipe on the can, the one that calls for evaporated milk. It’s lighter, more subtle flavor and more custardy, most pumpkin pies to me these days are SO heavy and over spiced.
I do like Costco’s apple pies, those things are ridiculously big and heavy with apple. No Shrinkflation there!

Originally posted by 41: I have read that some canned pumpkin had squash added or maybe 100 percent squash.
I think it’s that they actually use a variety of pumpkin that looks more like a squash than a Jack-O-Lantern pumpkin, something to do with higher sugar levels and easier to process.

I have to pace myself....Costco pumpkin pie is high up on the list, so is a bourbon pecan pie, apple pie and there's a custard mochi pie that's been calling to me.

Just back from the Costco in Louisville's high rent district. Packed with shoppers. Did buy a pumpkin pie, a fresh butterball turkey, praline pecans, rotisserie chicken, 50' of fresh cedar Christmas roping, socks, underwear, and a tank of gas.

Damn. I went there yesterday to get my groceries for the next 10 days as you could not paying my fucking ass to go in there next week as it’ll be a got damn zoo. They had birds roasting but none available to buy so I was a bit chapped as that $5 bird is the best protein for the dollar I have access to. Now you’re telling me they have the equivalent pumpkin pie there? Please don’t give me any more bad news
What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone
