actually, and i swear to god this is true, the best pumpkin pie i ever had was made with a real pumpkin. i am not usually a pumpkin pie fan, and i always wondered why people served them so much. i tried to do it again and it came out awful. the pumpkin i used was bigger, and it was kind of stringy. the moral of the story is that the convenience foods we have are more for consistency than anything else. the canned pumpkin is never stringy, but the flavor is totally different.
