The Best And Worst Pumpkin Spice Foods You Can Get This Fall

For some, fall is a season of colorful leaves, apple picking, football games, and cozy sweaters. For others, it's a solid three months where it's socially acceptable to revive their obsession with all things pumpkin spice. The pumpkin spice craze doesn't just stop with the PSL at Starbucks; it's everywhere, from delicious sounding things like pumpkin spice Oreos and cupcakes, to less appealing foods, like pumpkin spice-flavored salmon (uh, ew?). Here's a list of the best and worst pumpkin spice products out this season.

Best:

1. Pumpkin Spice Milano cookies

Just when we thought Milano cookies couldn't get any better. 10/10 would recommend these.

2. Pumpkin Spice granola

Channel your inner hippie health nut with this pumpkin-flavored granola that tastes absolutely awesome. Pairs perfectly with pumpkin spice Greek yogurt, too.

3. Pumpkin Spice kettle corn

I'm not sure who thought of this, but major props to them, because it's impossible to stop eating once you open the bag.

4. Pumpkin Spice Ghiradelli chocolates

Everyone thought salted caramel and chocolate was a weird combination at first, and look where we are now. Just give these a try, I promise you won't regret it.

5. Pumpkin Spice almonds

These are SO good, and healthy too! Yay for almonds!

6. Pumpkin Spice Pillsbury cinnamon rolls

Pillsbury cinnamon rolls are already amazing, and these ones add in a little pumpkin flavor to get you into the fall spirit.

7. Pumpkin Spice cookie butter

Okay, this is actually life changing. I got a jar of this last year from Trader Joe's and finished it probably within less than two days. Even if you don't like regular cookie butter (and if you don't, what is wrong with you?), there's a 99.9% chance you'll become obsessed with this, along with the rest of the world.

8. Pumpkin Spice cream cheese

Sounds weird, but tastes awesome. And goes well with the pumpkin spice bagels and English muffins that are popping up in grocery stores.

9. Pumpkin Spice Toaster Strudel

These are sort of like little pumpkin pie turnovers, but for breakfast, and require no effort other than putting them in the microwave and drizzling on that incredible icing.

10. Pumpkin Spice Latte

And, of course, the mother of all pumpkin spice products. If you don't go to Starbucks for a PSL wearing your riding boots and a flannel, is it even fall?

Worst:

1. Pumpkin Spice Jell-O

Wiggly, orange, pumpkin Jell-O? Hard pass.

2. Pumpkin Spice hummus

Ew. Chickpeas and pumpkin are not the next chocolate and peanut butter.

3. Pumpkin Spice milk

This is one of the times pumpkins definitely should not be mixed with dairy. *swipes left*

4. Pumpkin Spice sausage

Seriously, who in God's name thought this would be a good idea? Just lost my appetite for a few days.

5. Pumpkin Spice kale chips

Kale chips are already the bane of the non-ultra healthy crowd's existence. Don't make it any worse.

6. Pumpkin Spice Listerine tabs

Do people actually WANT their breath to smell like pumpkins? Stick to the mint, please.

7. Pumpkin Spice vodka

This honestly sounds traumatizing. Life hack: make it even worse and whip up some Jell-O shots with that pumpkin spice Jell-O.

8. Pumpkin Spice salsa

Just no. Also no to the pumpkin spice tortilla chips people are trying to sell.

9. Pumpkin Spice fettuccine

Italians would be ashamed of us. What a disgrace.

10. Pumpkin Spice Pringles

Potato chips should never be pumpkin flavored. NEVER.

And these are just the edible things. Don't even get me started on the pumpkin spice eyeshadow, pumpkin spice shampoo, and pumpkin spice condoms and tampons (literally, WHY) that are being put out onto store shelves this month. Also, when you think about it, what even is pumpkin spice? Whoever invented this mysterious thing must be making serious bank right now.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
