Just in time. It's October folks, and what's one of the things that defines this month and Halloween? The colour Orange of course! And what fruit is orange? The Pumpkin, oh the pumpkin. The first thing that comes into mind after thinking Halloween is pumpkins. Pumpkins are what define a whole holiday, giving you a sense of spookyness and thrill whenever you see up lite up in the dark.

Pumpkins are also very delicious. One of the mains dishes that is very delicious is the pumpkin pie. Now, you may be thinking "Oh my God, this is delicious, but is this healthy for you? Yes! Pumpkins actually contain Beta-Carotene, which is a nutrient under the Vitamin A section. Beta-Carotene is very similar to antioxidants, meaning that it is very helpful in prevent chronic and cardiovascular diseases.

Of course, people can always just use pumpkins for carving their favorite hero or movie character...
