Pumpkins play a starring role in Halloween activities (Photo Credit: Marines, Arlington, VA/Wikimedia Commons)

With the Halloween festivities over, most people will spend the next few days taking down the spine-chilling decorations and tossing the pumpkin Jack-o’-Lanterns, or scary monsters, that they spent hours creating. While the millions of gourds that end up in landfills every November is alarming, even more so is the massive amount of food waste generated since most people fail to take advantage of the fruit’s edible flesh and seeds.

          I enjoyed this article but I still would never eat my pumpkin that has been outside for a hole day or more. And you never know who touched if their was a person who touched they could be sick and their germs could spread on the pumpkin.
