Comment on At least it's not Pumpkin Spiced
MargotRobbie@lemm.ee 1 year agoI think “bacon flavored” is more appropriate in this scenario, because I really haven’t seen pumpkin spice flavor outside of coffee, candy and pastry, whereas a few years ago you can buy bacon flavored gum, ice cream, popcorn, candy, soda, vodka, perfume… etc that it became completely absurd.
pumpkin spice gum
pumpkin spice ice cream
pumpkin spice popcorn
pumpkin spice candy
pumpkin spice soda
pumpkin spice vodka
pumpkin spice perfume
It’s a very similar cultural trajectory than bacon was years before. It’ll last longer too since it makes more sense than “bacon flavored” does.
Oh bugger. Guess you’re right. 😔
I’ve seen far too many pumpkin spiced beer. Pumpkin pie flavor is often better, but still not my thing and too common this time of year. I have no issue with pumpkin spice as a flavor, but I don’t want it to take the place of other flavors, which it has to because taps are limited.
Pumpkin spice is only the flavor of the spices added to a pumpkin pie. Pumpkin pie flavor (should) taste like the pie filling in total. It’ll be a sweeter smoother flavor. Most of the spices you put in are fairly sharp flavors, so the pumpkin evens it all out.

Yes, I haven’t seen anything bacon related in a long time now.
