Ode to a mellowcreme pumpkin
You are orange and green
You taste like a dream
And you are manufactured in a facility that processes peanuts, tree nuts, sunflower seeds, milk, soy, and wheat
You herald the fall
From the special Halloween candy aisle I hear your call
You contain Partially Hydrogenated Cottonseed and/or Soybean Oil, which adds a dietarily insignificant amount of fat
Oh, sweet, sweet mellowcreme pumpkin...let's get together tonight in front of the Gilmore Girls
Where I will feast upon you until I very nearly hurl
They don't put nearly enough of you in the Brach's Autumn Mix.
Amen

OMG that is hilarious! I had to post it on my blog (with due credit, of course!)
I never liked those things - I always went for the candy corn. But this is a good excuse to buy a bag of Autumn Mix and give them another try! Any candy that gets an ode written to it deserves a second chance!
