Has Pumpkin Spice Gone TOO FAR? (Share Your PumpSpice Horror Stories Here!)

Not really here that but Nespresso have recently added it to their range.
 
What does pumpkin spice taste like?
 
Cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, cloves
 
What does pumpkin spice taste like?
It tastes like Defeat, like the corporate product marketing people have finally won, and convincingly so.
 
As far as going too far, I think you would have to sail the pumpkin spice from Indonesia, formerly the Dutch East Indies, up the Indian coast, down the horn of Africa and all the way around the Cape, then back up towards Rotterdam. Nutmeg and cinnamon made the journey before, that's a pretty long route. Remember, no Suez, and you can't camel it across because we're not going to start enriching those Ottomans. Going the other way around, you might sail off the end of the earth.
 
Why does it make people so angry?
Cuz around this time of year they put it in everything. So you see ads for it everywhere.

And . . . you know . . . Americans like having things to get angry about.
 
Now I want pie.
 
Mmm... imagine taking a bite out of this and enjoying it with some of your favorite tea or coffee.
