(Detroit.CityRegions.Com, October 22, 2015 ) Taylor, MI -- October 26 is National Pumpkin Day. Pumpkins are a harbinger of the harvest season, appearing every year as the first sign of autumn. The word "pumpkin" comes from the Greek word "pepon," meaning "large melon".
Although pumpkins can be grown on every continent except Antarctica, they are native to North America. The United States produces about 1.5 billion pounds of them each year. A Wisconsin farmer grew the largest pumpkin ever recorded. He used seaweed, cow manure, and fish emulsion to grow his pumpkin, which weighed 1,810 pounds and was the size of a dumpster. Within the past 10 years, white pumpkins have become quite popular in the United States.
There are many ways to celebrate National Pumpkin Day, carving a pumpkin to welcome Halloween trick-or-treaters, baking the seeds for a healthy autumn snack, or trying a new pumpkin recipe. Cakes, pies, cookies, puddings, smoothies, candies, breads, muffins, soups, cheesecakes and more can be made with fresh or canned pumpkin. For example Slick Cups includes an easy recipe for Pumpkin Cranberry Muffins with the purchase of a set of silicone baking cups.
Silicone baking cups are reusable muffin cups that are non-toxic, heat resistant and bake directly on a cookie sheet. They clean easily under running water and on the top rack of a dishwasher. Many brands, like Slick Cups, have a no questions asked guaranteed return policy.
